To minimize the risk of unfavorable outcomes related to low colorectal resection for 27

deep endometriosis, we propose an original technique combining the deep rectal shaving and 28

Abstract 51

Study objective: To report an original technique of deep rectal shaving using 52

PlasmaJet® followed by transanal disc excision using Contour Transtar® stapler suitable in 53

large deep endometriosis of lower rectum. 54

Design: Video article. 55

Setting: Rouen University Hospital. The procedure was performed in a 30 year-old 56

nullipara referred with a large endometriotic nodule infiltrating the right uterosacral ligament 57

and the anterolateral wall of the lower rectum. Rectal infiltration measured 30 mm in diameter 58

and was responsible for stenosis. The first step of the procedure is represented by a 59

laparoscopic deep rectal shaving performed using exclusively the plasma energy, combining 60

the detachement of the nodule from the rectum with in situ ablation of residual endometriotic 61

foci of the shaved area. Then, transanal excision is performed by the colorectal surgeon from 62

rectal approach. Three of four traction parachute sutures are placed in the middle and outside 63

the shaved area. Their traction induces the prolaps of shaved rectal wall, that is resected using 64

the Contour Transtar® stapler, which is a device originally destined to remove rectal prolaps. 65

The final staple line is inspected for bleeding and secured with interrupted resorbable suture 66

as required. Surgical technique reports in anonymous patients are exempted from ethical 67

approval by the IRB. 68

Intervention: Deep rectal shaving using PlasmaJet® followed by transanal disc 69

excision using Contour Transtar® stapler. 70

Results: Immediate postoperative outcomes were uneventful, and bowel movements 71

were normal beginning with day 5. To date, this procedure was successfully carried out in 17 72

women with large deep endometriosis of the mid and lower rectum, with only favorable rectal 73

functional outcomes. 74

Conclusions: Based on our experience, we believe that our conservative technique is 75

feasible in large low rectal endometriosis and avoids the risk of unfavorable outcomes related 76

to low colorectal resection. 77

Key words: deep endometriosis; rectal endometriosis; rectal shaving; disc excision; 78
