RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: During laparoscopic partial colectomy the specimen can be extracted transrectally. This technique decreases the invasiveness of the surgery, because the abdominal wall incision is avoided. Premises of a new surgical technique are precise technical description as well as a favourable balance of advantages and disadvantages. In this paper the authors review the technique they apply and analyse their first results. PATIENTS AND METHOD: 45 laparoscopic bowel resections were performed by a multidisciplinary team between 16th April 2014 and 1st November 2015. Indication of surgery was endometriosis, and the specimen was extracted transrectally in 11 patients. Having ligated both bowel ends proximal and distal to the section infiltrated with endometriosis, and the proximal bowel secured with a laparoscopic bulldog. Then the bowel was resected and the specimen was extracted in a camera bag transrectally. A purse-string suture was placed into the proximal bowel end, and the anvil of the circular stapler--which was introduced transrectally--was inserted into the bowel. After closing the rectal stump, the anastomosis was performed with a circular stapler. We used this technique when the upper third of the rectum or sigmoid colon was infiltrated with endometriosis. RESULTS: The difference between the operation time of the two techniques (transabdominal vs. transrectal specimen extraction: 108 min vs. 118 min) was not significant. There was not difference in the WBC count between the first and second postoperative day, and there was not any anastomosis leakage detected either. CONCLUSION: By using the above technique, postoperative infections could have been reduced to minimum. Transrectal specimen extraction did not increase postoperative complication The authors believe this is a safe way of specimen extraction after partial colectomy.

INTRODUCTION: The number of patients operated on with endometriosis increases, the urological organ and the bowels are involved in 10-40% of the cases in addition to the gynaecological organs. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Sigmoideoscopy detected bowel endometriosis in 224 patients from 383 patients with endometriosis, and 127 patients were operated on from 14.07.2009 to 13.01.2014 at the 1st Gynaecological Department of Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary. All the operation was made by the same gynaecologist and surgeon team. RESULTS: Segment resection of the bowel was performed in 120 patients, local resection in two patients and shaving in another two cases. The involved part of the bowels were the rectum at 46 patients, rectosigmoid in 68, sigmoid bowel in 30, coecum in 4, appendix in 2 and the small intestine in 2 patients. Bladder resection was carried out in 9 patients, ureter resection in two patients and ureterolysis in 26 cases were done due to infiltration of the urological organs. The laparoscopic operation needed to be converted on one single occasion due to bleeding from the epigastric artery, and a laparoscopic suture of the anastomosis was applied for bleeding in another patient. The specimen was extracted transvaginally in 16 patients and transanally in 13 patients. Anastomotic leakage was detected in two patients and rectovaginal fistula in four patients. All reoperations (creation and closing of the stoma) were done laparoscopically. CONCLUSIONS: The treatment of the bowel endometriosis is suggested with segment resection by multidisciplinary team, where the invasivity can be decreased by transanal specimen extraction.
