Transvesical Endoscopic Port in Abdominal Surgery: An Updated Perspective

Abstract

Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) generated a huge hope among surgeons because it promised scarless surgery and eventually less pain and surgical stress. However, serious limitations regarding reliable visceral closing methods remain unsolved. This article provides an update in development and future applications of transvesical access in the field of surgery.

•• Rattner D, Kalloo A, ASGE/SAGES Working Group: ASGE/SAGES working group on natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery. Surg Endosc 2006, 20:329–333. Leaders from the American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and the Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons agreed that translumenal endoscopic surgery could offer significant benefits to patients, such as less pain, faster recovery, and better cosmesis, than current laparoscopic techniques. The group identified the barriers that needed to be surmounted for the development of translumenal endoscopic intraperitoneal surgery and developed a list of next steps and guidelines to move this concept ahead.
