Abstract
TaTME was safe in this small series of patients. It is especially attractive in patients with a narrow and irradiated pelvis and a tumour in the lower third of the rectum. TaTME is technically demanding, but the good outcomes should prompt randomized studies and prospective registration of all taTME cases in an international registry.
