Transanal minimally invasive surgery for benign and malignant rectal lesions: midterm outcomes from a tertiary center.

Background: Although transanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS) for rectal neoplasia has gained wide acceptance, the mid-term and long-term outcomes are not widely reported in the literature.

Objective: Describe the mid-term outcomes of patients who underwent TAMIS for benign and malignant rectal lesions in a single center.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.
