Virtual Ports out of Misgav, Israel has received European approval to market the firm's laparoscopic hands-free organ retractor. The EndoGrab is designed to be attached via a special introducer to an organ to be retracted, and then to the abdominal wall. The introducer is then removed, leaving the laparoscopic port available for other use during surgery.
