First in-human trial and prospective case series of an articulated laparoscopic camera system in minimally invasive surgery in gynecology: an IDEAL stage 1 and 2a study.

Objectives: Precision Robotics' Sirius Robotic Flexible Endoscopic System is a new, fully integrated, compact three-dimensional laparoscopic camera system with a disposable single-use flexible tip that can change its viewing direction. This IDEAL Stage 1 and 2a study assessed its safety, reliability and potential efficacy particularly for single incision laparoscopic surgery and vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.

Design: Prospective single-institution, single-surgeon study.
