that the swine pelvis is too narrow to accommodate full ­length insertion of the TEM proctoscope for optimal expo­sure. This obstacle was in part overcome by combining transgastric access with a double -channel colonoscope to provide additional visualization and assist with endoscopic mobilization of the sigmoid colon.
A two -week survival comparative study of transanal versus combined transanal and transgastric endoscopic rec­tosigmoid resection (TA +TG) was performed in 20 animals (see Video 14.1). Transanal dissection of the rectosigmoid was fi rst performed through the TEM platform (Figure
14.1). In the TA +TG group, additional rectosigmoid colon was performed transgastrically using a colonoscope. The specimen was then exteriorized transanally, measured, and transected, and stapled colorectal anastomosis was per­formed transanally followed by gastrotomy closure in the TA +TG group using endoscopic T -tags (Figure 14.2). This study confi rmed the feasibility and reproducibility of transanal rectosigmoid resection with TEM, and demon­strated the safety of this approach [44]. There were no mortalities in either group, and two complications were noted in the TA +TG group, one abdominal hematoma and one abdominal wall abscess resulting from a T -tag misfi re

during endoscopic gastrotomy closure [44]. The peritoneal cavity was entered transanally in every case, and all resected specimens and stapled anastomoses were intact. The length of sigmoid colon that could be mobilized transanally was limited by the reach of the TEM platform above the sacral promontory. Transgastric access provided visualization and endoscopic access to residual attachments of the rectosig­moid colon, which extended the average length of overall colon mobilized transanally by 54% relative to a pure transanal approach (15.6 versus 10.5 cm), at the cost of signifi cantly longer operative time (254.5 versus 97.5 minutes). Sohn et al. reported similar fi ndings in a 1 -week survival study comparing NOTES TA +TG rectosigmoid resec- tion with single -port laparoscopic rectosigmoid resection in 22 animals [61]. Combined TA +TG procedures required sig- nifi cantly longer operative time (mean, 239 versus 103 minutes). In the TA +TG group, four abscesses at the gas- trotomy closure site, and two perisplenic hematomas were found at necropsy versus two abdominal wound infections in the laparoscopic group. Overall, complications did not differ statistically between the groups, and the morbidity of the NOTES procedures was again due to transgastric access and closure [61].

NOTES transanal rectosigmoid resection: human cadaver experience
When evaluating potential clinical application of this tech­nique, a major limitation of swine as a model for transanal endoscopic rectosigmoid resection is the fact that the swine mesorectum is considerably attenuated relative to the human counterpart, such that TME cannot be accurately replicated in swine. The technique was therefore extensively evaluated in human cadavers. The steps of the procedure were similar to that described in swine, with additional sigmoid dissection performed endoscopically through the TEM platform, using long and fl exible -tip laparoscopic instruments as well as endoscopic tools.
Procedural steps
The technique of NOTES transanal rectosigmoid resection was evaluated in human cadavers (see Video 14.2). Using an anoscope, a circumferential purse string suture is placed approximately 3.5 –4 cm from the anal verge, above the anal sphincter muscle complex, and tied to occlude the rectal lumen (Figure 14.3). The short -length TEM proctoscope is inserted transanally and secured onto the operating table. The faceplate is locked onto the platform and CO fl ated to a pressure of 8 –10 mm Hg. The TEM scope is inserted through the platform and connected to the camera head and to a standard laparoscopic video tower (Figure
14.3). The rectal dissection is initiated by scoring the rectal mucosa with cautery starting just distal to the purse string. This dissection is extended full -thickness through the entire

rectal wall, which is greatly facilitated by CO Posteriorly, the presacral space is entered and TME is com­pleted (Figure 14.4). This dissection is extended laterally on either side and anteriorly. The anterior rectal wall is dis­sected sharply off the posterior wall of the prostate or vagina. As the rectal dissection is extended more proximally toward the rectosigmoid junction, the short -length proctoscope is replaced with the longer proctoscope. As the anterior rectal dissection is extended more cephalad, the peritoneal refl ec­tion is reached and divided and the peritoneal cavity is entered (Figure 14.4). The rectosigmoid is mobilized as far cephalad as possible above the sacral promontory, which is achieved using long straight and fl exible -tip instru­ments (Figure 14.5). The inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) pedicle is identifi ed and transected using a stapling device inserted transanally. When dissection using standard laparoscopic and TEM instruments cannot be extended any more proximally due to diffi culties with length and reach, additional mobilization is carried out using a gastroscope inserted transanally through one of the TEM ports. Follow­ing maximal mobilization, the specimen is exteriorized transanally and transected (Figure 14.5). On close inspection of the specimen, an intact mesorectum and sigmoid mesen­tery and intact colon and rectum are noted. Standard stapled or handsewn coloanal can then be performed.

In a preliminary series of seven male and female cadavers weighing an average of 80 kg (range, 63.6 –113.6kg), transanal rectal mobilization with TME could be performed in all cases with grossly intact rectum and complete mes­orectum [62]. The peritoneal cavity was entered transanally in all cases, and more cephalad colon mobilization became limited by diffi culties visualizing and reaching above the sacral promontory and providing effective bowel retraction with the short length and rigid platform and dissecting instruments. In three cadavers, additional sigmoid mobiliza­tion was achieved using transgastric endoscopic assistance, and in the other four cadavers, a single -channel gastroscope was inserted transanally to assist with proximal dissection using standard and novel endoscopic tools. Overall, the mean length of rectosigmoid mobilized transanally was
38.5 cm (range, 15 –75 cm), and operative time was 5.8 hours (range 4 –8 hours) [62]. In three cadavers, the IMA could be transected transanally through the TEM platform using a laparoscopic stapler, and in the remaining four cadavers, this could not be achieved due to diffi culties with exposure and retraction. In two cadavers, proximal sigmoid mobilization was complicated by a focal tear. Procedures were performed using standard -length laparoscopic tools, longer -length
Experience in human cadavers
The feasibility of NOTES transanal rectosigmoid resection using the TEM platform was evaluated in male and female human cadavers to identify potential obstacles prior to tran­sitioning to clinical application. Specifi cally evaluated were (i) the completeness of TME and integrity of the resected specimen, (ii) the ease and safety of transanal peritoneal entry, (iii) the ability to transect the IMA transanally, (iv)
laparoscopic tools with fl exible tips, TEM instrumentation, and standard endoscopes. Based on this preliminary experi­ence, we concluded that transanal endoscopic rectal and mesorectal dissection could be standardized using commer­cially available instrumentation, with relatively steep learning curve, especially if performed by surgeons with experience with laparoscopic colorectal surgery and TEM.

4.5 nodes) [63].
In conclusion, as noted in swine, the main limitation of NOTES transanal rectosigmoid resection in human cadavers is to gain deeper access and exposure of the upper pelvis and effectively manipulate the sigmoid and proximal colon transanally. These limitations are magnifi ed in cadavers with an acute angle at the sacral promontory, visceral obesity, and pelvic adhesions. Currently available instrumentation is maladapted for this purpose, and endoscopic tools are inef-
The fi rst clinical case of a NOTES transanal resection for rectal cancer using TEM and laparoscopic assistance was recently performed at the Hospital Clinic in Barcelona [64]. After obtaining Institutional Review Board approval, transanal endoscopic rectal resection with TME using the TEM platform was performed in a 76 -year -old female with a pre -operatively staged T2N1 moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma of the anterior rectum located 6 cm from the anal verge, for which she was treated with standard

dissection with TME was completed using the same steps and instruments as described in human cadavers (Figure
14.6). The peritoneal cavity was entered anteriorly under direct laparoscopic visualization, and laparoscopic assistance was provided using two 2 mm needle ports at the umbilicus and in the suprapubic area. Transabdominal assistance was used to help retract the sigmoid colon, expose and divide the left peritoneal attachments, identify the left ureter, and dissect and retract the IMA in preparation for transaction, which was completed transanally using a laparoscopic stapler. The rectosigmoid colon was subsequent extracted transanally followed by handsewn coloanal anastomosis (Figure 14.6). The total procedure time was under 5 hours, the patient ’s recovery was uneventful, and she was dis­charged on the fi fth postoperative day. The fi nal pathology demonstrated a ypT1N0 tumor with intact mesorectum that included 23 negative lymph nodes and negative proximal, distal, and radial margins [64].
Since this original report, one additional report of transanal rectal dissection with TME and laparoscopic assistance was published, in a patient with a low T1 rectal cancer (3 cm from the dentate line) [65]. In this report, the authors fi rst performed transanal mucosectomy and full -thickness cir­cumferential rectal resection using a transanal technique, followed by introduction of a 4 cm wide disposable mul-
There is a growing number of reports on laparoscopic color­ectal resections for benign and malignant disease with natural orifi ce specimen extraction (NOSE), where transrec­tal [50,66–73] or transvaginal [74–79] access is used for specimen extraction and/or assistance during dissection. These early reports suggest potential benefi ts with regards to postoperative pain, recovery, and incisional -related mor­bidity. At the far end of natural orifi ce surgery, pure transanal endoscopic colorectal surgery, and specifi cally rectosigmoid resection, remains an area of active investigation, but is cur­rently unachievable clinically due to limitations with current instrumentation. Until better platforms and endoscopic tools come along, based on the encouraging preliminary clinical experience, a hybrid NOTES approach that combines transanal endoscopic access and laparoscopic assistance is safe and feasible in carefully selected patients. This approach has the potential to reduce the morbidity of radical rectal cancer resections and the technical diffi culties of total mes­orectal excision, particularly in morbidly obese patients. The procedural and oncologic safety of NOTES transanal rectos­igmoid resection with laparoscopic assistance for rectal cancer needs to be investigated in the setting of IRB -approved clinical trials. Critical factors for the success of this approach include careful patient selection and extensive endoscopic,

TEM, and laparoscopic experience. The procedure involves full-thickness circumferential rectal dissection starting just above the anorectal ring in order to facilitate performance of a safe coloanal or low colorectal anastomosis. Hence, eligibility for the procedure should include low - and mid ­rectal tumors that would otherwise require low anterior resection with TME and a diverting loop ileostomy. Until the oncologic adequacy and safety of this approach is demon­strated in larger phase I and phase II studies, eligibility criteria should exclude large, nearly obstructing, and T4 tumors, node -positive and metastatic disease, and any other factors that might compromise the adequacy of the mesorec­tal excision. Morbid obesity and prior pelvic surgery are also contraindications to the procedure, particularly during the learning curve required for the procedure.

Introduction
The World Health Organization estimates that over 1.6 billion adults are overweight worldwide and over 500 million are obese. In 2010, more than one in ten adults worldwide had a BMI over 30, which is more than double the rate of obesity in 1980. The epidemic of obesity is spread­ing and represents a major, if not the major, challenge to human health in the twenty -fi rst century. Obesity is the fi fth leading risk for global deaths, with at least 2.8 million deaths attributed to being overweight or obese; 44% of the diabetes burden, 23% of the ischemic heart disease burden, and between 7% and 41% of certain cancer burdens are attribut­able to obesity [1]. In the United States, obesity is predicted to soon overtake smoking as the leading cause of death and contribute to an overall decrease in life expectancy [2].
The rapidly increasing effects of obesity on morbidity, premature mortality, and healthcare costs have forced physi­cians to face obesity as a disease and consider a wide variety of options in prevention and treatment. The role of surgery in the management of obesity has markedly increased in recent decades, with several weight loss procedures. The three fundamental impacts of obesity procedures are restric­tion, malabsorption, and hormone modulation. The most commonly performed bariatric procedures worldwide are the Roux -en-Y gastric bypass, the gastric band, the sleeve gastrectomy, vertical banded gastroplasty, and the duodenal switch. Figure 15.1 highlights the basic confi guration of the most common gastric bariatric procedures and Figure 15.2 the most common bypass procedures. The choice of proce­dure is complex and should be tailored to the patient based on many factors, including BMI, comorbidities, and surgeon experience.
American NIH and European guidelines are similar con­cerning the indications for bariatric surgery. Patients with BMI over 40 kg/m candidates [3,4]. The consensus guidelines for bariatric surgery in Asia have lower BMI indications as epidemiologic data shows that people of Asian ethnicity have a higher adiposity for a given BMI and suffer from metabolic derange­ment at lower BMIs [5]. Patients of Asian ethnicity with BMI over 35 kg/m 30 kg/m candidates [6].

Bariatric challenges for NOTES
Obese patients present a variety of challenges for the surgeon that can be divided into three major categories: (i) pre ­operative comorbidities and anesthetic risk, (ii) intra­operative technical considerations, and (iii) postoperative complications. Each of these areas should be considered carefully in applying NOTES techniques to the treatment of obesity.
Pre -operative comorbidities and anesthetic risks
NOTES techniques, specifi cally with a fl exible operating platform, can be performed with very low -pressure pneu­moperitoneum once the scope is put in place. Combining low pneumoperitoneum and no abdominal trauma, it is conceivable that NOTES bariatric procedures could be per­formed under sedation rather than general anesthesia. The potential benefi t of less pneumoperitoneum and less anes­thetic includes improvement in many possible risks, includ­ing deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, depressed respiratory drive, and cardiac failure.

Intraoperative technical considerations
The size of many bariatric patients can push standard laparo­scopic equipment to its limits. Extra -long trocars and instru­ments are necessary in many cases. Additionally, the liver in obese patients is often fatty, producing an additional chal­lenge for the bariatric surgeon. Procedures that require access to the upper stomach often require signifi cant force to retract an enlarged left lobe of the liver. Current fl exible

infection for laparoscopic gastric bypass ranges from 2% to 8% while the rate of hernia ranges from 1% to 5% [7–9]. Additionally, between 3% and 8% of patients who undergo gastric bypass will need additional abdominal surgery for either complications or unrelated pathology [10]. NOTES techniques offer the possibility to eliminate abdominal wall complications and decrease the diffi culty of re -operations
[11] (Table 15.1). endoscopes and endoscopic instrumentation can be adapted to almost unlimited lengths, but the instruments do not translate the magnitude of force necessary for liver retrac­tion or manipulation of heavy structures, such as a fatty

Bariatric patients carry a high risk of postoperative complica­tions. Complications related to abdominal incisions include incisional hernias and wound infections. The rate of wound
minimize the complications of abdominal access by using a

multiple instruments pass simultaneously. LESS is a logical
