Founded in 2006, Virtual Ports, an emerging life science medical device company, is dedicated to bringing a higher level of performance to laparoscopic surgery through the use of proprietary MicroAnchoring™ Technology. Virtual Ports solutions optimize tissue access and visualization by allowing surgeons to atraumatically retract the organ obstructing the surgical field of view by lifting it and internally anchoring it to the endocavity wall. The Virtual Ports tool is then removed from the surgical port, freeing up the port for other uses. In contrast to conventional laparoscopic surgery, which requires the use of dedicated ports for organ retraction, Virtual Port’s technology enhances target tissue visualization and allows surgeons to reduce the number of surgical ports, incisions, interruptions and personnel during laparoscopic surgery. Fewer incisions improve the aesthetic outcome for patients and also decrease the risk of infection. The material costs and direct costs of the procedure are also reduced. Virtual Ports’ product portfolio includes the EndoGrab™ Port-Free Retractor, the EndoLift™ Port-Free Retractor and the EndoClear™ Endocavity Laparoscope Cleaning Station. These products have been used in more than 20,000 procedures worldwide. Clinical applications include cholecystectomy, general, bariatric and oncologic surgery, colon resection, robotic-assisted and single incision laparoscopic surgery.
