Figure 1 illustrates the port placement in RASP utilized in the present study. The robotic camera port is placed in the midline, just above the umbilicus. The additional robotic ports marked in red are inserted in a horizontal line with 8 cm of space in between. A 5 mm port (blue, small circle) is introduced between the camera port and the lateral robotic port on the patient`s right hand side, which is mainly utilized for suction. An additional 12 mm port for assistance is inserted in the right lower abdominal quadrant (blue, large circle)
