Tamis
Tamis is a term that can refer to multiple subjects, including a medical procedure and a geographical location. This article will cover both aspects.
Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS)[edit | edit source]
Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS) is a surgical technique used to remove rectal polyps and early-stage rectal cancer. It is a minimally invasive procedure that allows surgeons to access the rectum through the anus, avoiding the need for more invasive abdominal surgery.
Procedure[edit | edit source]
The TAMIS procedure involves the use of specialized instruments and a transanal access platform. The surgeon inserts these instruments through the anus to reach the rectum. The polyps or cancerous tissues are then excised with precision. This technique offers several advantages, including reduced recovery time, less postoperative pain, and a lower risk of complications compared to traditional surgery.
Indications[edit | edit source]
TAMIS is typically indicated for patients with:
- Large rectal polyps that cannot be removed endoscopically
- Early-stage rectal cancer
- Benign rectal tumors
Benefits[edit | edit source]
The benefits of TAMIS include:
- Minimally invasive approach
- Shorter hospital stay
- Faster recovery
- Lower risk of infection
- Reduced postoperative pain
Risks[edit | edit source]
As with any surgical procedure, TAMIS carries certain risks, including:
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Perforation of the rectum
- Anesthesia-related complications
