Abstract: Purpose:Vesicorectal fistula is one of the most devastating postoperative complications after radical prostatectomy. Definitive treatment is difficult due to morbidity and recurrence. Despite many options, there is not an unanimous accepted approach. This article aimed to report a new minimally invasive approach as an option to reconstructive surgery.Materials and Methods:We report on Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS) with miniLap devices for instrumentation in a 65 year old patient presenting with … Show more

“…The wide operation field in TEM enhances the maneuverability of curved instruments. Although the original TEM system is not widely used, the operative technique we describe in the current report should be reproducible with conventional instruments by TAMIS (transanal minimally invasive surgery), which was originally developed for the rectal cancer operation [33].…”
