Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery
(TAMIS)

Historical Perspectives and Rationale for Development
Sergio W. Larach and Beatriz Martín-Pérez
1
Introduction
Rectal lesions, whether of benign or malignant
histology, present a special challenge for surgeons
because of the difculty of access and exposureto
the rectal lumen. Traditional transanal methods,
such as Parks transanal excision (TAE), have been
associated with a high incidence of local recurrence,thus unleashing the development of newer
approaches. Heralding the era of the expansion of
endoscopic surgery, transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) represented a milestone in the
approach to rectal lesionexcision, as it achieved
minimally invasive access to the upper rectum, a
better quality of excision with improved likelihood of achieving negative resection margins. As
a result, decreased recurrence rates and improved
disease- free survival were observed, all due to
improved access and the concomitant improvement of visual eld and dissection quality. Despite
these advantages, TEM use was limited,
mainlydue to a steep learning curve, complex surgical setup, and cost of instrumentation. It was
with this pretext that transanal minimally invasive
surgery (TAMIS) was born, combining TEM

principles with conventional laparoscopic instrumentation, creating an important new option for
appropriately trained minimally invasive colorectal surgeons.
From Miles Resection to Parks Excision
Surgical management of rectal lesions represents a
challenge for the colorectal surgeon. Through the
twentieth century, the approach to rectal cancer has
largely evolved from invasive radical resections to
organ-sparing techniques. Jacques Lisfranc de St.
Martin (1790–1847) pioneered transanal rectal
cancer excision, when in 1826 he described the
removal of the anus and rectum through the
perineum, resulting on a perineal colostomy [1]. In
1875, Kocher and Verneuil tried to improved rectal
access and described the posterior approach including coccygectomy; this was subsequently rened
by Paul Kraske (1851–1930) [2]. Abdominoperineal
resection (APR) for rectal cancer was later
described in 1908 by Dr. Ernest Miles, reducing
local recurrence rates from 100% to 30% [3].
However, the morbidity associated with APR was
high, ranging from 15% to 61% [4–7].
Surgeons continued to search for less-invasive
options to manage rectal cancer, particularly within the distal one-third of the rectum.
The objective would be to develop sphincterpreservation techniques that could spare patients

fromthe high morbidity of APR while maintaining acceptable oncologic outcomes. In the case of
premalignant lesions including carcinoma in situ,
the benets of local operations for tumor removal
present a signicant advantage, as such lessinvasive surgery by this modality avoids the morbidity of radical surgery with virtually no
oncologic compromise.
In the early twentieth century, screening and
endoscopic techniques were less developed than
at present, for which these group of patients with
benignneoplasia or T1 cancers were subjected to
a radical surgery, permanent colostomy, and a
high rate of morbidity. Despite radical surgery,
patients had a high rate of local recurrence even
for early-stage rectal cancer [4, 6]. In this quest
for better approaches, local excision for rectal
lesions was born as an organ preservation surgery
for suitable lesions.
The pathway for management of early-stage
rectal cancer followed the treatment model of
early-stage breast cancer – which was treated
with either (a) breast-conservation surgery and
radiotherapy or (b)radical mastectomy alone [8].
Local excision for premalignant and early-stage
rectal cancer (predominately via Parkstransanal
excision, TAE) aimed to offer patient an improved
quality of life, through stoma-free surgery and
maintenance of normal bowel and urogenital
function, while obtaining similar disease-free
survival and cure rates to those observed with
radical resection. This technique was performed
with transanal retractors, which provide suboptimal exposure of the rectal lumen (Fig. 1.1).
Electrocautery and conventional surgical instruments were used for the local excision ofrectal
neoplasms, and the full-thickness defects were
closed with suture. Illumination of the rectal
lumen and overalloperative eldexposure was
limited by external eld lights (headlights
onlymodestly improve visualization, and are difcult to direct and maintain onto targets). Due to
these constraints, only low-lying rectal lesions
(i.e., palpable lesions, whose upper edge does not
extend beyond <7cm from the verge) were accessible by this approach, and complete, marginnegative excision of specimens could be quite
challenging due to this limited exposure.
S. W. Larach and B. Martín-Pérez
Fig. 1.1 Parks anal retractor
Despite these limitations, early series from
the 1970s were able to demonstrate that local
excision for early-stage rectal cancer with favorable histopathological features had equivalent
oncologic outcomes when compared with radical resection. In a landmark study by Morson
etal., the data for local excision revealeda failure rate (as dened by locoregional recurrence)
that measured 8.4%, which was felt to be quite
acceptable [9].
In the 1990s, the results of a prospective,
multi-institutional study from the Cancer and
Leukemia Group B (CalGB) reinforced the idea
of local excision and organ preservation for
select, early-stage rectal cancer [10]. Fifty-nine
cases of T1 were treated with local excision alone
and 51 cases of T2 undergoing adjuvant external
beam radiotherapy after local excision (local
excision was performed utilizing the conventional Parks TAE technique). The 6-year overallsurvival of 85% and disease-freesurvival rates
of 78% for this treatment seemed promising, particularly when compared to the 20–30% failure
rates after standard oncologic resection prior to
the era of TME surgery [5, 6]. These encouraging
early results were very well received by the surgical community, which resulted in an overall
increased rate of local excision as a modality of
treatment [11]. Unfortunately, subsequent series
published inferior results even in the same selection of T1 patients, whereby the observed local
recurrencerate increased from 8% to 18% for T1

1 Historical Perspectives and Rationale for Development
lesions and, even a more alarmingly, from 18% to
37% for the T2 cancers treated in this fashion
[12–14]. Parallel to these results, the technique
for radical surgery was evolving. Lead by RJ
Heald, total mesorectal excision (TME) was
being implemented around the globe. It was
learnt that through proper sharp dissection along
the embryonic plane of the TME envelope, local
recurrence for stage I rectal cancer could be
reduced to 7.1% [15]. Parks TAE had inferior
oncologic results compared to new-era TME surgery [12, 16]. The awareness that the improvement on patient’s quality of life with local
excision and organ-sparing surgery was at the
expense of worse oncologic outcomes resulted in
an overall decrease on the use of local excision
for invasive lesions [17].
Transanal Endoscopic Microsurgery (TEM)
5
Surgical evolution has been largely inuenced by
instrumentation development, and the advances
in the technique of local excision would undoubtedly come from creative applications of these
advancements. The discovery of the rst rigid
endoscopes presented by Desormeaux in 1865
later would evolve into the rst beroptic endoscopic procedure in 1957 [18], heralding the new
era of laparoscopy and minimally invasive surgery, which would nd tting applications in the
late 1980s toward a multitude of common abdominal operations [18–20].
In such a way, the design of an advanced
endoscopic transanal platform with an endoscopic camera and laparoscopic-style surgical
instruments would yield access to the rectal cavity with superior visibility when compared to the
traditional Parks approach and even provided
access to more proximal lesions that were not
accessible before with conventional techniques
for local excision.
In 1983, predating the rst laparoscopic cholecystectomy by a few years, Dr. Gerhard Buess
designed transanal endoscopic microsurgery
(TEM) (Fig. 1.2). It was a platform that, for the
rst time, allowed for excision of benign neoplasia
Fig. 1.2 Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM)
equipment. Developed in 1983 by Gerhard Buess, It
allowed for high denition access to the rectal vault for
the purpose of performing local excision
of the mid and upper rectum [21]. TEM consists of
a rigid transanal platform, which allows insufating of the rectal cavity, creating a pneumorectum.
TEM has three working channels, one for a xed
camera and other two for working instruments
(cautery, suction, suture, etc.). The improved visualization from a stereoscopic magnied view in
the pneumatically distended rectum allows for
precise excision in an operative space that would
be otherwise difcult to reach. Initially, Buess
designed TEM for local excision of nonmalignant
lesions not within reach of conventional transanal
methods, addressing the limitations of the Parks
excision. It was not designed with the purpose of
performing higher-quality excision. However, the
platform was soon utilized also for resection at any
level of the rectum and for early malignant lesions,
since TEM became increasingly recognized as the
better platform for this [22].

6
Since its rst description, the use of TEM has
proven to result in high-quality excisions with
outcomes that were more favorable than standard
transanal techniques for local excision, with a low
recurrence rate [23–29]. Winde et al. [22]
described no difference in disease-free and overall survival for patients with T1 rectal cancer
operated with local excision viaTEM versus radicalresection. A 10-year single center experience
demonstrated that for 70 patients who underwent
TEM for T1 rectal cancer, a local recurrence rate
of 8.5% was observed [30]. Furthermore, data
surmised from other studies, indicated that local
excision via the traditional (Parks) approach has
inferior 5-year survival rates compared to anterior
resection for patients with T1N0M0 disease;
while, when local excision of T1 lesions was performed with TEM, the oncologic results were
comparable to those achieved with radical surgery
for early rectal cancer [16, 31, 32].
For 25 years, TEM was the only available
advanced transanal platform. However, this
advanced transanal platform required specic
instrumentation (with associated higher cost),
posed ergonomic difculties, and resulted in a
steep learning curvefor even experienced trainees [33, 34]. The economic pressure for cost containment in the healthcare system limited the
investment in TEM, and few institutions could
afford the TEM apparatus, as a high volume of
cases was necessary to amortize the price of the
platform [20]. For these reasons, widespread
adoption was limited, and TEM for local excision
remains, to this day, an operative technique primarily performed by a small number of highvolume specialists in referral centers [35, 36].
Over the decades, the system’s design has not
been signicantly modied, and it is essentially
unchanged since its development by G. Buess.
Transanal endoscopic operation (TEO) (Fig.1.3)
emerged as a similar platform to TEM, with analogous principles, indications, and results [37].
Together, TEO and TEM are considered advanced
transanal platforms capable of performing highquality excision of rectal neoplasia. They are
often referred to as “rigid platforms.” In general,
most experts believe the quality of excision
achievable with TEM and TEO is the same.

The beginning of the twenty-rst century was
marked by further evolution in abdominal laparoscopy and abdominal access strategies.
Meanwhile, the concept of natural orice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) emerged in
2004. This led to the idea of consolidating laparoscopic trocars into a combined port that could be
delivered through the umbilicus (an embryonic
natural orice). Thus, the birth of the “single port”
was based on (a) decreased abdominal wall access
trauma and (b) the ability to provide a minimally
invasive route via an embryonic natural orice.
Although the concept of single-wound minimally
invasive access was reported by Pelosi et al. in
1992 as a transumbilical approach for appendectomy [38], it was not until the mid- 2000s, in the
wake of NOTES, that single ports were manufactured, and this approach was subsequently applied
to a broad range of abdominalprocedures including colonic resection [39, 40].
Although not intended by design to be used
for transanal access, the single port seemed ideal
for this purpose. In 2009, this was performed for
the rst time, giving birth to a new operation for
rectal surgery. The new approach would have a
profound effect on how colorectal surgeons
would operate within the rectum. The technique
was termed transanal minimally invasive surgery
(TAMIS) by its founders S. Atallah, M. Albert,
and SW.Larach [41].

1 Historical Perspectives and Rationale for Development
7
It is often said that necessity is the mother of
invention. TAMIS represented an alternate option
for advanced transanal access for surgeons and
hospital systems that did not have the highly specialized and costly TEM system. After all, TAMIS
was simple to set up, relied on conventional laparoscopic equipment, and was predicated on laparoscopic skills and familiar techniques.
Additionally, TAMIS did not appear to have a
long learning curve and did not require specialized training (as is the case with TEM) [41].
TAMIS provided the surgeon with improved visualization and reach. In short, it allowed colorectal
surgeons to translate their familiar laparoscopic
skill set to transanal surgery, which resulted in
rapid dissemination of the TAMIS technique [42].
The rst platform placed transanally and the
rst series reported on TAMIS utilized the SILS
Port (Covidien, Manseld, MA) (Fig.1.4). While
suitable for access, this and other single ports
were not designed for transanal access and
required modication. An important limit of the
SILS port was that it did not allow for access into
the lumen, without completely removing the
port; there were other limitations as well, including cannula diameter which was restricted to
5mm at the time.
With input from the surgeons who developed
TAMIS, dedicated platforms were designed specically for transanal access– the rst of which
remains the one most widely used today: Namely,
the GelPOINT path transanal access platform
(Applied Medical, Inc., Rancho Santa Margarita,
CA) (Fig.1.5). The GelPOINT Path, often simply
referred to as the “TAMIS Port”, is constructed
from single-use exible material composed of
two main parts, an access channel and a removable lid. Three 10mm cannulas are usually used,
one for the camera lens and two working ports,
through which standard laparoscopicinstruments
can be introduced. The TAMIS platform isquite
versatile and even allows for robotic access – a
technique termed robotic TAMIS or robotic transanal surgery (RTS) [43–45].
TAMIS utilization has rapidly spread worldwide because of its accessibility and the increasing number of training courses available for
surgeons. Its global adoption has been reected
by the increasing number of publications and
citations since 2009 [36, 42, 46–60].
Future of TAMIS
TAMIS was created to evolve, and not remain
static. The future will likely represent new avenues for TAMIS as surgeons explore new applications. To date, many applications beyond local
excision have been realized. Most notably, TAMIS
became the standard route of access for the

Port.Although it was not intended to be used transanally, it
was used to develop the TAMIS technique.The SILSportwas
used for all cases published in the rst series on TAMIS and
predated the creation of TAMIS- specic ports

From a technical standpoint, further instrumentation and platform renementswill likely contribute to the advancement of TAMIS. Next- generation
exible robotic transanal systems are poised to be
part of the future evolution of TAMIS.
Figure 1.6 shows the evolution and milestones
in rectal surgery.
Conclusion
TAMIS arose serendipitously and represents an
amalgam of innovations in laparoscopy, singleport surgery, NOTES, and TEM. The impetus
behind its development was the need for improved
access to the rectal lumen, thereby providing a
practical and effective alternative to TEM.
