According to the literature source of a study performed between june 2012 to september 2014 about short-term outcomes and experience after 80 cases of transanal total mesorectal excision for rectal carcinoma, in which a single-port device was used, one patient was readmitted 10 days after surgery with circular full-thickness ischemia of the mucosa distal of the anastomosis and in the anal canal, possibly caused by pressure necrosis due to the transanally placed trocar.
