Technical Points Addressed: Transanal endoluminal surgical techniques can be employed to safely and completely remove a large, circumferential rectal adenoma. This video demonstrates the benefits of combining endoscopic visualization and submucosal injection with minimally invasive endoluminal surgery using a soft, disposable transanal access platform.
Case History: A 51 year old female was found to have a circumferential rectal mass extending from 3cm to 11 cm on flexible endoscopy and non-invasive transrectal ultrasound (uT0N0). Final pathology revealed a 8.5 x 6.2 x 1.5 cm tubulovillous adenoma with high grade dysplasia and negative margins.
