Natural orifi ce translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is an endoscopic technique whereby surgical interventions can be performed with a fl exible endoscope passed through a natural orifi ce (mouth, vulva, urethra, anus) then through a translumenal opening of the stomach, vagina, bladder, or colon [1]. NOTES has the potential to provide no scarring, reduced pain, and faster patient recovery compared to open and laparoscopic surgical procedures [1]. We present herein the landmarks in the history of NOTES, from the early stages of endoscopy and laparoscopy to its current development.

Prehistory of NOTES (from ancient times to the late twentieth century)
It is diffi cult to date when people started to have a look into human bodies, and even harder to credit one individual with the invention of endoscopy. The earliest descriptions of endoscopy are by Hippocrates (460 –375 described a rectal speculum. A three -bladed vaginal specu­lum was found in the ruins of Pompeii, demonstrating that Roman medicine also involved primitive endoscopic tools. At this time, nothing but ambient light was used, and only rigid instruments were available. Major technological developments leading to modern endoscopy and to modern laparoscopy were born in the nineteenth and twentieth cen­turies [2].

A brief history of endoscopy [3]
The fi rst issue faced by the pioneers of endoscopy was the illumination problem. The fi rst gastroscopy was reported by Kussmaul in 1868 [4]. Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison invented the incandescent electric light bulb in 1878, but this technology was incorporated into endoscopes only at the beginning of the twentieth century [3].

The second and more challenging problem was fl exibility. Articulated lenses and prisms were proposed by Hoffmann in 1911 [5] and improved in 1932 by Wolf and Schindler, who developed a semi -fl exible gastroscope [6]. However, the light source consisted of a distal light bulb that provided poor illumination and produced color distortion. In 1930, Lamm showed that bundles of glass fi bers could be used as a conduit for a light source, and that this bundle could be bent with no effects on light transmission [7]. “Coherent” bundles, ordered in such a way that the position of a fi ber at one end mirrors its position at the other end, provided a real image of internal organs [8]. An external light source transmitted through fl exible and coherent fi ber bundles could therefore illuminate internal organs.
Flexibility and illumination were combined by Harold Hopkins in 1954: the fl exible fi ber imaging device he invented was made of a tube of glass with thin lenses of air [9]. In 1958, Larry Curtiss and Basil Hirschowitz improved this system by using a highly transparent optical quality glass to give birth to a fl exible fi beroptic endoscope [10].
In the late 1970s, the charge -coupled device (CCD) was incorporated into an endoscope [11]. This development heralded the modern era of endoscopy. The CCD allowed the display of endoscopic images on television screens and the connection of endoscopes and computers. From this major shift started a two -decade period described by Sivak as “the golden era of gastrointestinal endoscopy ” [3]. Major achievements, which have since become routine proce­dures, were reported: endoscopic retrograde pancreatogra­phy (1968), colonoscopic polypectomy (1969), endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (1970), endoscopic sphincter­otomy with bile duct stone removal (1974), percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (1980), endoscopic injection sclero­therapy (1980), endoscopic ultrasonography (1980), elec­tronic CCD endoscope (1983), endoscopic control of upper

gastrointestinal bleeding (1985), and endoscopic variceal ligation (1990) [3]. Modern endoscopy was born.
A brief history of minimally invasive surgery
Georg Kelling (Dresden, Saxony) reported on the fi rst lapar­oscopic procedure in animals in 1902. Hans Christian Jacobaeus (Sweden) performed the fi rst laparoscopic opera­tion in humans in 1910. Many refi nements were brought to the technique over decades. However, diagnosis and simple gynecologic procedures were the main applications [2]. A landmark in this early period of laparoscopy is the fi rst diag­nostic laparoscopy by Palmer in the 1950s [12]. In the 1960s gynecologists took up interventional laparoscopy. The fi rst CO
hysteroscopy was reported by Frangenheim and Semm
2
in the mid -1970s [2]. Tarasconi (Ob -Gyn, Passo Fundo, Brazil) reported on the fi rst laparoscopic organ resection (salpingectomy) in 1976, since published in 1981 [13]. Kurt Semm (Kiel, Germany) performed the fi rst laparo­scopic appendectomy in 1981. Although he is now consid­ered as one of the fathers of modern laparoscopy, he fi rst met great skepticism and even scorn [14]. His suspension from medical practice was debated in the German Gyneco­logical Society. The paper that he submitted on “endoscopic appendectomy” to the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gyne- cology was initially deemed unethical and was rejected. Semm persevered, introduced thermocoagulation, and developed many standard laparoscopic gynecologic proce­dures, including ovarian cyst enucleation, myomectomy, treatment of ectopic pregnancy, and laparoscopic -assisted vaginal hysterectomy. He published hundreds of papers on laparoscopy, established a company of laparoscopic instru­ments, and built the widely used pelvi -trainer [14]. By the end of the 1980s, laparoscopy was widely accepted in gyne­cology, but few general surgeons had included laparoscopy in their practice. The fi rst lap -cholecystectomy was made by Erich Muhe (Erlangen, Germany) in 1986. Muhe met a lot of misunderstanding from his colleagues at this time, and even faced a lawsuit for “improper surgical action ” [15]. The use of the computer chip TV camera in 1986 led to the era of modern laparoscopy: not only was a view of the operative fi eld magnifi ed onto a monitor, but also the surgeon could stand upright, and both his/her hands were free. Complex laparoscopic procedures were then devel­oped. Philippe Mouret (Lyon, France) performed the fi rst video-assistedlaparoscopic cholecystectomy in 1987. Mouret mentored Dubois (Paris, France), Perissat (Bor­deaux, France), and other collaborators. The so -called “French connection ” made the laparoscopic technique more and more popular [16]. The fi rst US laparoscopic cholecys­tectomy was performed in 1988. In the early 1990s, laparo­scopic cholecystectomy was an accepted routine procedure. A dramatic explosion of laparoscopic applications occurred in the 1990s. Among others, landmarks in the history of laparoscopy are the fi rst descriptions of truncal vagotomy
[17], nephrectomy [18], Billroth II gastrectomy [19], and splenectomy [20]. Similar developments have been achieved in thoracic surgery in the past 30 years. Minimally invasive surgery is now seen as one of the greatest achievements in the recent history of medicine.
On the verge of NOTES (1980 –2000)
Translumenal endoscopic approaches
From the 1980s to the 2000s, numerous translumenal endo­scopic procedures emerged. Some of them are now part of the routine practice of gastrointestinal endoscopy. Various endoscopic techniques consist of the creation of an artifi cial external opening into the digestive tract for nutritional support or gastrointestinal decompression. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) creation without laparoscopic assistance was fi rst reported in 1980 by Gauderer et al. [21], then followed by variations such as percutaneous endo­scopic jejunostomy and colostomy [22,23]. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) arose in 1980 [24]. Diagnostic EUS proce­dures were fi rst based on imaging and Doppler only. Under EUS guidance, the fi ne needle aspiration (FNA) technique was developed to allow the sampling of lesions through the digestive wall [25]. EUS -FNA is now commonly used to target lesions in the mediastinum, in the biliary and pancre­atic area, and in the mesorectum. Further refi nement of the EUS technique has led to the ability to pass instruments (guidewires, fi ducials, coils, radioactive seeds, pharmaco­logical agents) using fi ne needles, leading to the concept of interventional EUS. Biliary, pancreatic, and vascular thera­peutic EUS techniques are currently under evaluation [26].
Translumenal per -oral endoscopic access to the retroperi­toneum is another gastrointestinal technique preceding the birth of NOTES. It was fi rst described by Hans Seifert (Old­enburg, Germany) in 2000 [27]. After endoscopic transmu­ral drainage of peripancreatic fl uid collections is performed with EUS -FNA and wire -guided stent placement, the same transgastric access is expanded with balloon dilatation. The endoscope is advanced through the gastrointestinal wall into the retroperitoneum. Endoscopic removal of infected pan­creatic necroses can be achieved under direct visual control. In a multicenter open study, initial clinical success was obtained in 80% of 93 patients, with a 26% complication and a 7.5% mortality rate at 30 days [28]. Similar results were found in a US multicenter study that included 104 patients [29]. Although not compared to surgery in rand­omized controlled studies, this endoscopic technique has become a valid therapeutic option. The concept of endo­scopic debridement of necrosis was expanded to other con­ditions than pancreatitis and is now performed in expert centers to treat complications of postoperative leakage and fi stula [30]. Although PEG, FNA -EUS, and endoscopic drain­age of necrosis are defi nitely translumenal endoscopic pro-

cedures conducted through natural orifi ces they are not considered as true NOTES procedures as the endoscope is not advanced in the free peritoneal or thoracic cavity.
Transvaginal laparoscopy
Transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy is a surgical technique that arose in the 1990s with the main purpose of diagnosing and treating infertility in women. The technique used a modifi ed rigid and reusable laparoscope. The so -called “fertiloscopy” procedure combines a hydrolaparoscopy advanced through the vagina and the pouch of Douglas together with hyster­oscopy and salpingoscopy with dye. A pioneer in this fi eld is Antoine Watrelot (Lyon, France). After he developed the technique, he demonstrated that fertiloscopy is useful in the diagnosis of tubo -peritoneal abnormalities (a major causes of infertility), enables rational choices in the therapeutic strategy of infertility, improves pregnancy rates, and allows reductions in costs [31]. The technique does not involve a fl exible instrument and is not dedicated to the exploration of the entire peritoneal cavity. However, it is seen as a close step on the way to NOTES.
The birth of NOTES (2000)
Flexible endoscopic procedures have become more and more invasive over recent decades. At the end of the twen­tieth century, frontiers in endoscopy were broken in a step ­wise fashion. Diagnosis endoscopy is now possible all along the digestive tract (including the small bowel) and even in
the duct of its main accessory glands (cholangioscopy, pan­creatoscopy) [32]. Imaging and sampling of organs beyond the digestive tract have been made possible by EUS -FNA. The most recent step was the possibility of voluntarily causing a breach in the integrity of the digestive wall to access and treat necrosis in the retroperitoneum [33].
Conversely, surgery is getting less and less invasive. Dr Hunter’s quote in 1762 – “Surgery, gaining much from the general advance of knowledge, will be rendered both knife­less and bloodless ” – was much ahead of his time. At the end of the twentieth century, laparoscopy has been demon­strated safe and cost -effi cient, in a wide range of applications in abdominal, pelvic, and thoracic surgery. It has been fully accepted by medical and surgical communities. Minimally invasive surgery has therefore gained patients ’ satisfaction over the years and is now a standard of care for many indi­cations. Some of its latest developments are the possibility to access and to treat through natural orifi ces (mostly through the vagina) and/or through a unique and small parietal incision (as proposed in single -incision laparoscopic surgery, SILS).
NOTES is born from the confl uence of these two trends (Figure 1.1). Anthony Kalloo and the team (Figure 1.2) from the Johns Hopkins Hospital (Baltimore, USA) reported on the fi rst NOTES procedure (transgastric peritoneoscopy) in a survival porcine model during the 2000 edition of the Digestive Disease Week (DDW) (see Video 1.1). In this initial approach (fi nally published in 2004) [34], access to the peritoneal cavity was gained with a fl exible videogastro­scope through the mouth and after needle -knife puncture

nels, increased push force, wider freedom of movement, and variable rigidity [36]. Approximating and sewing instru­ments were developed. Among others, the group of Paul Swain (London, United Kingdom) was extremely active on this topic [37]. Along with these advances in the design of instruments, early procedures were refi ned, with animal experiments on organ removal and anastomosis, leading to the fi rst descriptions of NOTES gastrojejunostomy, fallopian tube ligation, hysterectomy, and cholecystectomy [38–41].

and balloon dilatation of the anterior wall of the stomach. Peritoneoscopy and liver biopsies were performed. Hemo­clips were used to close the gastrotomy. Two years later, Rao and Reddy (Hyderabad, India) reported on the fi rst human case (transgastric NOTES appendectomy) in a DDW video session (Figure 1.3) [35].
NOTES launching (2000 –2004)
After its initial description, a few research groups showed interest in NOTES. At this early stage, much work was done out of the public view. Developmental studies aimed to make fl exible endoscopes and ancillary instruments suitable and safe for translumenal access, and surgical procedures were being developed. Endoscope and overtube prototypes were conceived and designed with larger accessory chan-

NOTES societies
In July 2005, US leaders in the fi elds of both laparoscopy and gastrointestinal endoscopy came together for a summit meeting in New York City. These experts built up the Natural Orifi ce Surgery Consortium for Assessment and Research (NOSCAR) group, a joint initiative supported by the Ameri­can Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and the Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Sur­geons (SAGES) (Figure 1.4). From this meeting, the NOSCAR group published a fi rst White Paper in 2006 that aimed to guide research on NOTES [42]. The key message of the group was that developmental work and animal study were required before safe clinical evaluation could be attempted (Table 1.1). The group successfully called for the involve­ment of the industries of both endoscopy and surgery. Their fi rst annual meeting under the name of NOSCAR was held in Boston in 2006. The fi rst NOSCAR research grants were awarded in 2006, since then followed by yearly awards. Other international groups with similar goals and means followed this move throughout the world. In 2007, the fi rst joint meeting of the European Association for Endoscopic Surgery (EAES) and the European Society of Gastrointesti-

nal Endoscopy (ESGE) on Natural Orifi ce Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (EuroNOTES) was held in Sweden.
NOTES early animal experiments
From the initial reports of per -oral transgastric fl exible peritoneoscopy, it was expected for NOTES to offer a wide array of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Under the guidance of NOTES societies, and with their funding in many cases, numerous procedures and tools were devel­oped in this period in laboratories. Most procedures were attempted in pigs of various breeds, and more rarely in dogs or in human cadavers. The following selection of procedures is not exhaustive, but it gives an idea of the fl ourishing research activity that emerged from the initial description of NOTES. Early transgastric experimental pro­cedures included creation of anastomosis [41,43,44], gyne­cologic surgery [39,41,45,46], and cholecystectomy [47]. Transgastric NOTES was combined with other innovative techniques such as EUS [48], confocal endomicroscopy [49], closure devices [47,50–52], and robots [53]. Other access routes to the peritoneal cavity were evaluated, as illustrated by reports on transcolonic peritoneoscopy [54], hernia repair [55], and cholecystectomy [56], on transvesical peri­toneoscopy [57] and thoracoscopy [58], and on transesopha­geal procedures [59].
NOTES in human medicine (2009 –2011)
Transgastric NOTES waning
Although most of the above -mentioned transgastric experi­ments in animals met with technical success, most proce­dures were tedious and did not allow immediate translation for clinical practice. Since the initial report of transgastric NOTES appendectomy by Rao and Reddy in 2002 [35], only
Figure 1.5 Zorron team.
a few clinical reports on transgastric NOTES have been pub­lished. In most cases, laparoscopic assistance was deemed necessary by the operators and by ethics committees. Laparoscopy-assisted transgastric diagnostic fl exible perito­neoscopy has been performed at the time of oncological [60] or bariatric [61] surgery in short series. Only a few cases of pure transgastric NOTES procedures have been reported in human patients [62].
Transvaginal NOTES breakthrough
Based on the strong experience of fertiloscopy preceding the birth of NOTES, the transvaginal route met most of the expectations of surgeons for a safe and reliable access to the peritoneal cavity. Although it excludes male patients to benefi t from the technique, most surgeons involved in the development of NOTES proposed to move forward by start­ing clinical series with the transvaginal approach. Cholecys­tectomy was felt to be a standard surgical procedure that could be easily translated from the laparoscopic to the NOTES approach. The fi rst series were lap -assisted (hybrid NOTES). Audacious surgeons from South America took the lead. In 2007, Ricardo Zorron (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) pub­lished the fi rst report of transvaginal hybrid NOTES chole­cystectomy (Figure 1.5) [63]. As the technique was refi ned, rigid laparoscopic instruments and ports were progressively reduced in terms of numbers and size. Jacques Marescaux (Figure 1.6) from Strasbourg, France, soon followed by Mark Bessler (Figure 1.7) from New York, USA, reported on the fi rst NOTES cholecystectomy without any laparoscopic assistance (also known as “pure NOTES ”). These major achievements received a large echo in the media, favoring further development and evaluation of the technique. The fi rst series of transvaginal hybrid NOTES cholecystectomy were published in 2008 [64–66]. Data from the German NOTES registry have since confi rmed that transvaginal

hybrid NOTES cholecystectomy was a safe alternative to the laparoscopic approach. Although not compared to laparos­copy, NOTES was favorably evaluated in 551 patients (including 470 cholecystectomies), with a complication rate of 3.1% and a conversion rate to laparoscopy or to open surgery in 4.9% [67]. The NOSCAR consortium has started a prospective multicenter trial comparing NOTES cholecys­tectomy with conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the USA.
NOTES offspring
The development of NOTES has served (and is still serving) other concepts in the development of interventional endos­copy and minimally invasive surgery.
Collateral development in interventional endoscopy
The development of innovative devices for access and closure during NOTES procedures has offered new possibilities to therapeutic endoscopists. Submucosal endoscopy is a direct result of targeting NOTES procedures in an attempt to develop safe access and quick closure. An early proposal to secure access to the mediastinum and to the peritoneal cavity was to create endoscopically a tunnel in the submu­cosal layer of the digestive wall. The technique was named
Figure 1.7 Marc Bessler.
submucosal endoscopy with mucosal fl ap (SEMF). By sepa­rating the mucosal access to the submucosa from the mus­cular breach giving access to surrounding organs, and by using a mucosal fl ap to cover the tunnel, the operators aimed to decrease the risk of contamination [59,68–70]. Since then, this approach has been developed and evaluated for the endoscopic treatment of achalasia, called per -oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) [71,72]. The research on NOTES has also provided new tools for endoscopic full ­thickness resection of tumors [73,74] and for the treatment of endoscopic perforations. Bariatric endoscopy also greatly benefi ts from the research on endoscopic sutures and anas­tomosis during NOTES [75,76].
Collateral development in minimally invasive surgery
Transumbilical surgery is another example. The umbilicus is not strictly considered as a natural orifi ce and it is therefore not included in the narrow spectrum of NOTES. However, transumbilical surgery clearly benefi ts from the advances of NOTES (and vice versa). The concepts of natural orifi ce transumbilical surgery (NOTUS), transumbilical endoscopic surgery (TUES), and transumbilical laparoscopic assisted (TULA) have arisen from this idea. They are now endlessly combined to other concepts, including laparo -endoscopic single-site (LESS) and single -incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), and fl exible endoscopy (fl exible SILS), thus expo-

nentially increasing the fi eld of minimally invasive surgery. Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) is also an expand­ing fi eld of surgery with a close relationship to the technical advances of NOTES [77].
Conclusion
Initially described by gastroenterologists by a pure per -oral transgastric route in the pig model, NOTES is now mainly performed by surgeons, through the transvaginal route, in human patients. NOTES is a result of the natural evolution of endoscopy and laparoscopic surgery in the quest to deliver less invasive patient care. It is currently in its infancy but will grow to be part of our armamentarium of approaches to patient care.
