    Consider a discrete lattice \(L\subset \mathbb{R}^3\) and suppose \(x: M\to \mathbb{R}^3/ L\) is a complete and connected minimal immersion. Assuming that \(x\) is stable and \(M\) has finite genus the authors prove that if rank \(L=1\) or 2 then \(x(M)\) is a quotient of the plane, the helicoid or a Scherk's surface.
