The use of stereoscopic laparoscopic systems in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) allows a three-dimensional (3D) view of the surgical field, which improves hand-eye coordination. Depending on the stereo base used in the construction of the endoscopes, 3D systems may differ regarding the 3D effect. Our aim was to investigate the influence of different stereo bases on the 3D effect.
