Many different chandelier systems are developed to overcome the above-mentioned problems, but they are expensive and their fixation systems are inconvenient and timeconsuming [11,12].…”

Our system can be inserted with a singlestep approach, as in a regular trocar insertion, without the above-mentioned problems.…”
