Passing an instrument through a small incision alters the kinematics of the instrument, thus hampering hand-eye coordination. Nevertheless, the incision provides a stable, nearly invariant, point of rotation for instrument movements. Therefore, we set out to evaluate the effects of the altered kinematics on hand-eye coordination. In addition, we assessed the hypothesis that the hand-eye coordination of laparoscopic surgeons incorporates the incision as a point of reference.
