Two different portal techniques were used, namely MPAS (three separate ports) in lions and SPAS (SILS\u2122 port) in cheetahs, using standard straight laparoscopic instruments. Portal access system and first ovary was not randomized. Five different surgery times were compared for the two different procedures as well as evaluating the use and application of MPAS and SPAS.
