DOI: 10.1002/jso.26795
Abstract: Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) avoids the difficulty of laparoscopic dissection of the lower part of the rectum. The need for stoma is associated with many stoma‐related complications. The objective was to compare TaTME with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00384-021-03849-2
Abstract: There is concern that transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) may result in poorer functional outcomes as compared to laparoscopic TME (LaTME). These concerns arise from the fact that TaTME entails both a low anastomosis and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00384-021-04019-0
Abstract: Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) has been proposed as an alternative to laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (LapTME) in distal rectal tumors. Despite encouraging reports, mid- and long-term oncological results are limited. In this study, we… read more here.
