Abstrakt: Background: Laparoscopic rectal sleeve resection is challenging and technically demanding. Exposure and mobilization of the most distal part of the rectum can be especially hazardous. We propose the use of a single port access device, placed in the anal canal after incision of the sleeve at the appropriate level, to facilitate dissection without sphincter damage. The case of a 51-year-old woman suffering from a recurrent supralevator abscess is presented to illustrate the technique.
Methods: The procedure consisted of laparoscopic rectal pull-through with rectal sleeve resection and coloanal anastomosis. Incision of the endopelvic fascia and mobilization of the distal mesorectum was performed via the single port device under direct control. Medial-to-lateral mobilization of the colon was performed with a 3-port technique.
Results: Total operating time was 122 min: 50 min for rectal mobilization, 42 min for the laparoscopic part of the procedure and 30 min for the coloanal anastomosis. The patient's recovery was uneventful, and at 1-month follow-up, she was asymptomatic.
Conclusions: Laparoscopic-assisted transanal single port rectal mobilization seems to be a promising addition to the armamentarium of minimally invasive surgery.
