Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES) Conclusions
Natural orifice transluminal surgery (NOTES) is a rapidly evolving field which may shift the minimally invasive surgery world from laparoscopic and video assisted thoracic surgery to procedures that can be done via the natural body orifices without any abdominal or thoracic incisions. NOTES may be a feasible, safe, and reasonable option for abdominal surgery. It may provide many advantages and lessen many surgical complications. New NOTES procedures should be experimental at the beginning, and they should be performed only in research labs in advanced institutions before applying NOTES clinically.
We are on the way for routine clinical applications of NOTES by the steady progression of the field. Patient safety and the research trials that ensure this safety is paramount. Innovative instruments are needed for the surgeons and gastroenterologists to perform safe NOTES procedures. The development of such therapeutic techniques and advanced endoscopic devices will allow the endoscopists to perform various procedures more easily, such as resection of large and deep mucosal lesions and taking full thickness biopsies [1].
International NOTES research groups, such as NOSCAR, EURO-NOTES, ASIA-NOTES, NOSLA (Natural Orifice Surgery Latin America), EATS (European Association of Translumenal Surgery) and others currently work to improve NOTES field and aim to provide registries for NOTES procedures worldwide.
Finally, enthusiasm and conducting laboratory studies and clinical trials are required for further improvements in the field in order to provide the best possible patient care for our patients.
