Transanal, hybrid natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) and NOTES-assisted specimen extraction techniques hold promise as leaders in the field of surgery. We report feasibility a novel NOTES assisted technique for unlimited length, clean, endolumenal proctocolectomy porcine model. This is modification transanal intussusception pull-through procedure recently published by our group. Rectal mobilization was achieved laparoscopically; this followed recto-rectal (IPT). IPT...
