Abstract

Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery for Natural Orifice (NOTES) has emerged in the experimental surgical field, innovating for the passage of luminal barrier, the absence of scars and reduction of post-operative pain. Among the various ports of access (transvaginal, transgastric, transvesical and transcolonic), this chapter is an update on transvesical port for NOTES applications.
