Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM): a minimally invasive procedure for treatment of selected rectal neoplasms

Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) provides a minimally invasive alternative to radical surgery for excision of benign and malignant rectal tumors. TEM aims to provide an alternative to conventional abdominal surgery (low anterior resection or abdominoperineal amputations), which carries not inconsiderable morbidity and mortality. Based on review of the literature and in the authors experience, this review present the method and indications for TEM.

Medical Thoracoscopy

Pleuroscopy, also known as medical thoracoscopy, is a minimally invasive procedure that is used to examine and biopsy the pleural cavity as well as to perform therapeutic interventions. This procedure has a near-perfect diagnostic accuracy in malignant pleural effusions and tuberculosis. With a mortality rate of 0.1%, the complication rate is low (2% - 5%) and usually mild (subcutaneous emphysema, bleeding, infection). Objective : Increase knowledge of pleuroscopy as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in lung disease. Method : This paper is based on a review of the literature on pleuroscopy. Conclusion : Pleuroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to examine and biopsy the pleural cavity, as well as for therapeutic intervention. Complications are uncommon and usually minor. Sugestion : Other articles are required to increase knowledge about pleuroscopy in order to obtain more knowledge.
