Abstract
One of the problems in laparoscopic surgery is intractable coordination bet ween an operative surgeon and a different individual cameraman. To overcome this problem, we have developed the original "gassho" laparoscope manipula tor system, which the surgeon can control by himself during surgery and rea lize solo-surgery.
