摘要:
A method for performing a surgical or medical procedure on a portion of a patients body within a surgical environment enclosure may involve preparing the surgical environment enclosure for performing the procedure, advancing the portion of the patients body into the surgical environment enclosure through a first port on the enclosure, and performing the surgical or medical procedure on the portion of the patients body inside the surgical environment enclosure, through at least a second port on the enclosure. The first port forms a seal around a surface of the patients body upon or after insertion. In some embodiments, neither the entire body of the patient nor an entire body of any medical or surgical personnel fully enters the surgical environment enclosure during performance of the surgical or medical procedure.
