Transanal excision (TE), endoscopic transanal resection (ETAR) and transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) can be used to remove adenomatous polyps. However, their use is limited by the size or location of the tumor. TE is limited to the lower rectum, TEM offers better access to lesions in the middle and upper rectum, and ETAR is used less frequently than it deserves for resection of rectal lesions.
经肛门切除术(TE)、内镜经肛门切除术(ETAR)和经肛门内镜显微手术(TEM)可用于切除腺瘤性息肉。然而,它们的应用受到肿瘤大小或位置的限制。TE仅限于直肠下段,TEM能更好地处理直肠中、上段的病变,而ETAR在直肠病变切除中的应用频率低于其应有的水平。
