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/s10151-019-02046-2
Abstract: Performing transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is, initially, challenging for almost every surgeon, even experienced colorectal surgeons. Some authors suggest a minimum of 30–40 cases to complete the learning curve and become confident with the… read more here.
