RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Robotic assisted transanal polipectomy may have advantages compared with the conventional transanal minimally invasive surgery technique. We evaluate the safety, feasibility and advantages of this technique. METHODS: Between February 2014 and October 2015, 9patients underwent robotic transanal polypectomy. We performed a retrospective study in which we analyse prospectively collected data regarding patient and tumor characteristics, perioperative outcomes, pathological report, morbidity and mortality. RESULTS: A total of 5 male and 4 female patients underwent robotic TAMIS. Lesions were 6,22cm from the anal verge. Mean size was 15,8cm2. All procedures were performed in the lithotomy position. Closure of the defect was performed in all cases. Mean blood loss was 39,8ml. Mean operative time was 71,9min. No severe postoperative complications or readmissions occured. Median hospital stay was 2,5 days. CONCLUSIONS: Robotic TAMIS is useful to treat complex rectal lesions. Our transanal platform allowed a wider range of movements of the robotic arms and to perform all procedures in the lithotomy position.

Objetivos: La polipectomía transanal asistida por robot puede tener ventajas respecto a la cirugía laparoscópica transanal convencional. Evaluamos la seguridad, factibilidad y ventajas potenciales de esta técnica. Métodos: Entre febrero de 2014 y octubre de 2015, se realizaron un total de 9 polipectomías transanales en nuestro centro. Realizamos un estudio retrospectivo de datos recogidos prospectivamente referentes a las características de los pacientes, tumores tratados, resultados perioperatorios, informe anatomopatológico y morbimortalidad. Resultados: Fueron tratados 5 hombres y 4 mujeres mediante polipectomía robótica transanal. Las lesiones se encontraban a una distancia media de 6,2 cm respecto al margen anal. La superficie media de las lesiones fue de 15,8 cm2. Todos los procedimientos fueron realizados en posición de litotomía, independientemente de la localización de la lesión. Se realizó cierre del defecto en todos los casos. El sangrado intraoperatorio medio fue de 39,8 mL. El tiempo quirúrgico medio fue de 71,9 min. No se objetivaron complicaciones graves postoperatorias ni reingresos y la estancia mediana fue de 2,5 días. Conclusiones: La polipectomía transanal asistida por robot es útil para tratar lesiones rectales complejas o voluminosas. Nuestra plataforma de acceso transanal permitió un amplio rango de movimientos con los pacientes en litotomía (AU)
