Originally described in 2010 by Attalah et al. (1), TAMIS was designed to allow access to mid-rectal and more proximal lesions. The continued evolution of robotic surgery including three-dimensional imaging, motion scaling, tremor elimination, and enhanced dexterity in a confined space introduced a concept of Robotic TAMIS (R-TAMIS). First successful application of this platform was demonstrated in cadaver models (2, 3), but this technique has also found its place in colorectal surgery (4).
