title: [Three-dimensional laparoscopy has the potential to replace two-dimensional laparoscopy in abdominal surgery].
abstract: Studies comparing three-dimensional (3D) laparoscopy with 2D laparoscopy have shown shorter operation time, a short learning curve as well as better depth perception. Robotic surgery includes the EndoWrist function in addition to the 3D view; however robotic surgery lacks haptic feedback. No evidence from clinical trials for the potential benefits of robotic surgery exists. Thus, 3D laparoscopy is an eligible alternative to both 2D laparoscopy and robotic surgery.
