Doing a robotic prostatectomy. Here's the sentence:


The lateral-most laparoscopic port was placed on the right, using the "Versa Steck" under direct vision.


Non-ESL American doctor, very clear, making it sound like 2 words, Versa and Steck.  I am finding Versatak and VersaStick which is home exercise equipment. Any ideas?  TIA!!!

He says this:
We incised the urachus and umbilical ligaments and dropped the bladder down posteriorly. We incised the endopelvic fascia and preprostatic ligaments and placed 2 ligatures of 0 Vicryl around the s/l doors venous complex.

Venous complex is clear, but is that dorsal? First lapscc of these I have done. Stedman's GI/GU is not very good either.
