Yes. But that's fine and it will decrease cost greatly. Most surgeons will tell you that four arms are rarely used in multiport general surgery robotic cases. I think it would be more cost effective for a well trained assistant who is already on the clock to provide retraction or suction. This is done in TORS procedures as well. SPORT will have an assistant port so another incision will not be required.
