During the peri-coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, the need of special care has raised, not only for our patients but also for health care workers. These needs are different regarding the procedure and the approach performed. This is a dynamic review in the use of robotics and transanal approaches for colorectal diseases. We searched PubMed and KSREvidence.com for studies related to coronavirus disease and robotic surgery/transanal mesorectal excision/transanal surgery (primary and systematic reviews). From 147 results in PubMed, 11 were selected for full text screening, and 11 were included in this paper. From 3 results in KSREvidence, no relevant systematic reviews were identified. We also checked the references in identified papers for further relevant studies. European Society of Coloproctology guidelines were including as part of the recommendations available. Robotic and transanal MIS can be performed safely during the pandemic, but particular characteristics of these procedure need to be taken into consideration.

This manuscript focused on the surgical challenge of urinary and sexual dysfunction after rectal cancer surgery based on the interesting results demonstrated by the observational study of Chen , which was published in the . Urinary dysfunction occurs in one-third of patients treated for rectal cancer. Surgical nerve damage is the main cause of urinary dysfunction.

Background And Objective: Robotic surgery for rectal malignancies in the Philippines is emerging. Evidence has shown promising results for robot-assisted (R) rectal surgery when compared to the laparoscopic (L) and open (O) approach. This study discussed the clinicopathologic outcomes of the first robotic rectal resections versus laparoscopic and open rectal resections at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH).

Background: While total mesorectal excision is the gold standard for rectal cancer, the optimal surgical approach to achieve adequate oncological outcomes remains controversial. This network meta-analysis aims to compare the histopathological outcomes of robotic (R-RR), transanal (Ta-RR), laparoscopic (L-RR), and open (O-RR) resections for rectal cancer.
Materials And Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were screened from inception to June 2024.
