Current Evidence in Gastrointestinal Surgery: Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES)

Background

Natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is a technique that uses transvisceral access to perform surgical procedures entirely through a natural orifice. Despite the increasing awareness of NOTES, there remain obstacles to its technical feasibility and widespread acceptance. Furthermore, with the paucity of high-level supporting evidence, NOTES currently remains an experimental technique.

Objective

This article reviews the goals, applications, technical and practical challenges, and future direction of NOTES in gastrointestinal surgery.     

Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES)

Objective: Review of the application of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) in human studies. Summary Background Data: NOTES presents the latest promising technology that allows new access into the abdominal cavity through a natural orifice for multiple clinical applications. It has generated excitement among physicians for a potentially scar-free surgery. Being in its infancy stage, the safety and efficacy of this technology must be studied with scrutiny. Methods: A PubMed search was conducted in April 2008 for “natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery” and for “natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.” The search was limited to articles in English and those regarding human subjects. Results: The outcomes from the published case series show a level III evidence for the use of NOTES. However, human experience with NOTES is growing. Eleven articles involving human experience with NOTES have been published in 2007 and 2008. More studies are expected as the interest in this type of surgery has only just begun. Conclusions: NOTES is a promising new technology that needs fine-tuning before it is safely applied in the clinical setting. This highlights the need for further animal and human studies in well-controlled settings followed by industry trials and case series. The excitement about this new approach should be directed toward more training and more studies before larger clinical applications can begin.     

A review of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) for intra-abdominal surgery: experimental models, techniques, and applicability to the clinical setting

OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of models, techniques, outcomes, pitfalls, and applicability to the clinical setting of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) for performing intra-abdominal surgery through a systematic review of the literature. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: NOTES has attracted much recent attention for its potential to allow traditional surgical procedures to be performed entirely through a natural orifice. Amid the excitement for potentially scar-free surgery and abolishment of dermal incision-related complications, the safety and efficacy of this new surgical technology must be evaluated. METHODS: Studies were identified by searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Current Contents, Cochrane Library, Entrez PubMed, Clinical Trials Database, National Health Services Centre for Reviews and Dissemination (NHS CRD) databases, and National Research Register from 2000 to June 2007. Studies identified in September 2007 were included if they were performed in live human subjects. RESULTS: Of the 34 studies included for review, 30 were experimental studies conducted in animals, thus the evidence base was very limited. Although intra-abdominal access could be achieved reliably via oral, anal, or urethral orifices, the optimal access route and method could not be established. Viscerotomy closure could not be achieved reliably in all cases and risk of peritoneal infection has not been adequately minimized. Although the majority of interventions could be performed in animals using NOTES, a number of technical problems were encountered that need to be resolved. CONCLUSIONS: NOTES is still in early stages of development and more robust technologies will be needed to achieve reliable closure and overcome technical challenges. Well-managed human studies need to be conducted to determine the safety and efficacy of NOTES in a clinical setting.     

Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Gastric Bypass Performed in a Cadaver

Natural orifice transluminal surgery (NOTES) offers a new option for abdominal surgery. However, despite the initial interest and enthusiasm for its potential advantages, NOTES has some major drawbacks which include the purposeful injury to an organ that may not be otherwise injured or diseased. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass may be a procedure that is suited for NOTES because the stomach wall is breached during the normal course of the operation. We have experimented with a technique for a NOTES gastric bypass in the human. A transvaginal, transgastric gastric bypass (TVTG-GBP) was performed in a human cadaver.     

Hybrid notes cholecystectomy in an experimental model of laparoscopic acute cholecystitis

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of hybrid natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) transvaginal cholecystectomy in a porcine model of acute cholecystitis. We have developed an experimental model of acute cholecystitis in 8 female pigs (33.37±3.11 kg) through the surgical occlusion of the common bile duct. After 4 days, hybrid NOTES cholecystectomy was performed in all animals with the assistance of only one 5 mm trocar. The transvaginal approach and the abdomen exploration were performed without any complication. The hybrid NOTES cholecystectomy was successfully completed in all animals. The mean operative time was 76.50±10 minutes. Gallbladder rupture appeared in 2 cases, and there was no bleeding or laceration of adjacent organs. Our experiments showed the feasibility of hybrid NOTES cholecystectomy in an experimental model of acute cholecystitis. Additional research and training on experimental models of pathology will be necessary to validate NOTES surgery.     

Natural orifice surgery applied for colorectal diseases

Clinical natural orifice surgery has been applied to abdominal surgery in recent years, mostly using transvaginal and transgastric access. Rectal and transcolonic natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) were tested in animal and cadaver models by a few research groups. Despite the potential advantages of transcolonic NOTES for colorectal diseases, it has not yet been clinically applied. The first successful series of human applications of transcolonic NOTES in the literature from the NOTES Research Group in Brazil provide new possibilities in the field in new transrectal procedures for rectal cancer and benign disease. Successful first human reports on Transcolonic NOTES potentially brings new frontiers and applications for minimally invasive surgery. The treatment of colorectal diseases through flexible Perirectal NOTES Access is a promising new approach alongside existing laparoscopic and open surgery to improve patient care.     

A natural orifice transrectal approach for oncologic resection of the rectosigmoid: an experimental study and comparison with conventional laparoscopy

Background  

A transrectal (TR) approach for natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) makes sense for colorectal surgery because the colotomy can be incorporated into subsequent anastomosis. Because cancer is a primary indication for left-sided colon resection, oncologic standards will have to be met by a NOTES procedure. This study aimed to assess whether pure TR rectosigmoidectomy can be performed with strict adherence to oncologic principles compared with a conventional laparoscopically assisted approach (LAP).     

Challenges and lessons learned from NOTES cholecystectomy initial experience: a stepwise approach from the laboratory to clinical application

Background/Purpose  The initial idea behind natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) was that of an incisionless surgery. NOTES cholecystectomy is a good model of human ingenuity and technological advance. NOTES cholecystectomy in a human being was performed at our institution after extensive laboratory work in live pig models. In this process we gained helpful information related to NOTES cholecystectomy. Methods  More than 250 cholecystectomies in pigs have been performed. From May 2007 to November 2008 a total of 10 and 6 transvaginal and transgastric human cholecystectomies, respectively, have been performed. Results  The procedure was successful in all patients, with a mean operative time of 120 min. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications. Patients recovered promptly after surgery and had minor postoperative pain. They were discharged on the second postoperative day. Conclusions  The advantages of laparoscopy appeared to be enhanced by this approach: patients had minor postoperative pain and minimal scarring. This stepwise experience in the cholecystectomy procedure is an important first step in the development of methods and devices to enable the evaluation of potential incisionless NOTES surgery. Additional research and comparison studies are needed for further improvement in order to provide NOTES procedures to a wider range of patients.     

Natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) in urology: initial experience

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: For years, urologists have been champions of surgery performed through natural body openings. The next frontier is intraperitoneal or retroperitoneal surgery performed via natural body openings. We reviewed the initial experience with natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) in urology. METHODS: The first experimental application of NOTES was published in 2002 when transvaginal nephrectomy was performed in the porcine model. Confirmatory experimental studies using the gastrointestinal tract for NOTES were first published in 2004. The bladder was first experimentally evaluated as a portal for NOTES in 2006. Urologists have developed and evaluated novel magnetic anchoring systems and operative platforms for NOTES. To date, clinical application of NOTES in urology is limited to transvesical peritoneoscopy. RESULTS: Analysis of the literature suggests that technologic, anatomic, physiologic, ethical, and philosophical questions must be answered before NOTES will be widely introduced or justified clinically. The premise that NOTES will be associated with a better recovery and fewer postoperative risks also remains to be evaluated. CONCLUSIONS: Largely in experimental models, urologists have show feasibility of NOTES. Ongoing evaluation and the introduction of new technologies are required for the field to advance. In addition, NOTES should be carefully embraced only after detailed evaluations prove a measured benefit in comparison to established minimally invasive techniques.     

Single Laparoscopic Incision Transabdominal (SLIT) Surgery—Adjustable Gastric Banding: A Novel Minimally Invasive Surgical Approach

Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) has become an exciting area of surgical development. However, there are significant limitations to this surgical concept due to the lack of surgical expertise and appropriate flexible instrumentation. An alternative and competing technology to NOTES is single-access surgery. We present a novel surgical technique for placement of an adjustable gastric band utilizing a single laparoscopic incision which was ultimately used for implanting the subcutaneous access port. This new technique is called single laparoscopic incision transabdominal (SLIT) surgery which describes an advanced laparoscopic bariatric operation that can be performed through a tiny slit. The operative time was 55 min. There were no intraoperative complications. The patient did well postoperatively and was discharged on postoperative day 1. There were no postoperative complications at 1-month follow-up. Adjustable gastric banding performed through a single laparoscopic incision is technically feasible. The procedure was performed with mostly existing ports, laparoscopic instrumentations, and visualization platform. Advantages of SLIT surgery compared to conventional laparoscopic surgery will ultimately require further randomized clinical trials.
