Clin Case Rep. 2022 Feb 13;10(2):e05457. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.5457. eCollection 2022 Feb.

Abstract

Rectal duplication cysts are extremely rare and account for only 4% of all gastrointestinal duplication cysts. They may become challenging for removal in the case of a large tumor in a narrow pelvis. Herein, we report a case of rectal duplication cysts excision via robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery and its utility.

Keywords: RALS; rectal duplication cysts; robotic‐assisted laparoscopic surgery; the da Vinci system.
