Objectives: To compare the effectiveness and safety of transgastric and transrectal pure natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) for cholecystolithotomy.

Methods: This was a single-center retrospective comparative study of consecutive patients who underwent pure NOTES for either transrectal or transgastric gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy between September 2017 and April 2020. Patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis were assigned for transrectal or transgastric NOTES based on the patients' choice.

Article Synopsis
  • Flexible endoscopy has advanced to perform complex procedures that previously required open surgery, but technical challenges remain such as imaging difficulties and limited tools.
  • There is a proposed method to enhance transgastric laparoscopy using new endoscopic ports to carry out procedures in hard-to-reach areas, like antireflux surgery in the stomach.
  • A study involving five pigs demonstrated the feasibility of this technique, showing promising results with measurements taken to assess the gastroesophageal junction before and after surgery, although the animals were euthanized post-operation.

Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of a single and common approach for transgastric submucosal excision of small- to medium-sized gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) having different locations in upper two-third of the stomach by pure minimally invasive approach.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective study from February 2012 to January 2015 on 11 patients was conducted including both male and female. Their age ranged from 40 to 65 years.
