Introduction to Total Mesorectal Excision [PDF]
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of mortality in the West, and rectal cancer accounts for about 25% of the colon cancers. The concept of total mesothelial excision (TME) was the most important event in surgery for rectal cancer of the last two decades, because even without a curative approach, it reduced local recurrence and extended 5 ...

The role of transanal total mesorectal excision
At inception, transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) was hypothesized to be a solution for several problems encountered in pelvic surgery, particularly for distal rectal cancer. The transanal part of the procedure is less hampered by patient related factors such as visceral obesity and a narrow bony pelvis and can thus overcome access and ...

Carbon dioxide embolism during transanal total mesorectal excision: A hint of prevention from a case report [PDF]
Transanal total mesorectal excision is a relatively new approach for treating lower rectal cancer. Carbon dioxide embolism is a critical complication of this procedure.

Initial local excision for clinical T1 rectal cancer showed comparable overall survival despite high local recurrence rate: a propensity-matched analysis [PDF]
Purpose Local excision (LE) is an alternative initial treatment for clinical T1 rectal cancer, and has avoided potential morbidity. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of LE compared with total mesorectal excision (TME) for clinical T1 ...

Evolution of Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision
AbstractMinimally invasive techniques continue to transform the field of colorectal surgery. Because traditional surgical approaches for rectal cancer are associated with significant mortality and morbidity, developing less invasive approaches to this disease is paramount.

Surgical Outcomes, Long-Term Recurrence Rate, and Resource Utilization in a Prospective Cohort of 165 Patients Treated by Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision for Distal Rectal Cancer [PDF]
A transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) is a smart alternative to a conventional TME. However, worrisome reports of a high recurrence and complications triggered a moratorium in a few countries.

Minimally Invasive Approaches for Total Mesorectal Excision [PDF]
In this PhD thesis three minimally invasive approaches for total mesorectal excision (TME) are compared: laparoscopic TME, robot-assisted TME and transanal TME (TaTME).
