Having had the NON robotic version of that surgery done (It's called a Laproscopic Coleocystecomy (sp?) or a Lap Coly for short), they DO inflate your gut to give them room to work! There are something like 4 holes made, 2 of which are ONLY to put in the gas (Nitrogen I believe). The main part of the surgery is through the navel. The scars are about the size you would get from a pimple, except for the one in the navel

I _WALKED_ out of the hospital that night. I REALLY should have waited for the wheelchair - it was a LONG walk, and I was a hurting pup by the end. One T&C3 that night, and after that, just Advil (But HIGH dose). I was back at work in 5 days, and back at the gym in 3 weeks
