Abstract
A medical manipulator is disclosed, which includes a multiple-degree freedom arm which can be mounted with a medical instrument, an insertion port position which indicates a spatial position of an insertion port for inserting the medical instrument mounted in the multiple-degree freedom arm into a human body is retained. An insertion posture of the medical instrument is determined so as to cause an extended line of a major axis of the medical instrument to pass through the spatial position indicated by the retained insertion port position, outside the human body. The multiple-degree freedom arm is controlled so as to realize the determined insertion posture.
