@RealScoobyDoo 94 Posted March 22, 2013 The "spider" refers to all the instruments coming out of the same hole. Looks like a spider. Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NicoleLpn 8 Posted March 22, 2013 I wouldn't do the belly button its one of the dirtiest areas on the body so it is way more prone to infection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krenzema 14 Posted March 22, 2013 I beleive the Spider System helped me recover faster with less pain, because I had fewer surgical wounds. What is the SPIDER® Surgical System? The SPIDER® Surgical System is a laparoscopic platform that is used to perform minimally invasive surgery. Unlike conventional rigid laparoscopic surgery, the SPIDER flexible laparoscopic platform allows multiple instruments to be used through one incision. The result may potentially be fewer incisions and a fast recovery for the patient, while providing surgeons with enhanced capabilities. My surgeon demonstrating the Spider System.

Lisa R. 9 Posted March 22, 2013 I had the 1 incision through the belly button. It healed very quickly and the pain didn't last very long. Honestly, my 2 c-sections were more painful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
