Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
NOTES is one of the newest forms of incisionless surgery in which the surgery is performed by entering the mouth, vagina, or anus. The endoscope is passed into the passage and traversed to a point where an incision can be made into an organ wall to access a structure within the peritoneum such as the gallbladder or appendix.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
More than one trocar port may be inserted to create a working portal for more than one person or instrument such as graspers, cutters, staplers, dissectors, suturing devices, suction, or coagulation devices. Devices necessary are based on the surgical procedure.
