Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Surgical Innovation
  • Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques
  • Anorectal Pathology Management

Background:

  • Transanal endoscopic surgery (TES) has evolved significantly since the 1980s.
  • TES involves specialized devices inserted into the anal canal for anorectal procedures.
  • Accurate patient selection is paramount for the success of TES techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current applications and evolving role of Transanal Endoscopic Surgery (TES).
  • To highlight the importance of patient selection in TES procedures.
  • To discuss the potential of TES in conservative rectal procedures and future strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical development and current applications of TES.
  • Analysis of indications for TES, including adenoma resection and rectal cancer treatment.
  • Exploration of emerging endoscopic techniques and their integration with TES.

Main Results:

  • TES was initially indicated for endoscopically unresectable adenomas.
  • TES is increasingly used for benign rectal diseases and selected rectal cancers.
  • For advanced rectal cancers, TES is considered palliative or experimental; its role is still defined.

Conclusions:

  • TES provides valuable minimally invasive options for various anorectal pathologies.
  • Careful patient selection optimizes the benefits of TES.
  • Future research should define the role of novel endoscopic techniques in conjunction with TES for rectal pathology.
