Transanal specimen extraction following combined laparoscopic colectomy and liver resection

A 47-year-old woman admitted with constipation and a sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma and liver metastasis was diagnosed. Synchronous laparoscopic anterior resection and liver metastasectomy were done and transanal specimen extractions were performed for both resection materials. No recurrence or procedure-related problem was found in the follow-up of the 14^th months, and her esthetic score was determined as 9/10. Transanal specimen extraction can be a viable method for patients with left-sided colon cancer with liver metastasis. It avoids additional abdominal incision, and as far as we know, this is the first liver specimen removed through the anus.
