German term

Operationspult

German to English Medical Medical: Instruments Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery
Context:

Dank Mechatronik- und Robotiksysteme, sogenannte Telepräsenztechniken, kann der Chirurg vergleichsweise entspannt am sogenannten Operationspult sitzen, statt womöglich stundenlang angestrengt über einen Patienten gebeugt zu stehen.

I'd have guessed this might be called an "operation desk", but can find only 1 reference to back this up in connection with "laparoscopic surgery", "minimally invasive surgery", "keyhole surgery".

operation console

With these systems, the surgeon is placed remotely away from the patient, seated at an operation console with a 3D camera array. This allows the surgeon to see everything as clearly as if s/he were actually operating on an open-heart, all while removing the need to actually open the chest and expose the patient to operating room air. Not only is the surgeon able to access hard to reach places, but is also able to combat the limitation in vision encountered by traditional endoscopy.
