Abstract:
Two female patients with rectal tumor undergoing proctectomy via vagina, namely natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES), are reported. The operations were performed on June 8 and August 10, 2010, respectively. No Trocar was used in the abdomen except for the transumbilical incision. There were no visible scars in the abdomen. Tubulovillous adenoma and moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma were diagnosed respectively through postoperative pathological examination. Both patients resumed normal work and life at the most recent follow up. Sexual life was satisfactory.
