The paper describes a small case series of three patients—two with colorectal cancer and one with endometriosis—who underwent, in a single operative session, laparoscopic anterior rectal resection combined with total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy performed by a coordinated laparoscopic colorectal surgeon and gynecologist. The authors report that the combined laparoscopic procedure was feasible and could be done safely, leveraging advantages of laparoscopy when performed by an experienced team. A key limitation is that the evidence is based on only two cancer cases plus one endometriosis case, with no comparative outcomes reported beyond feasibility and safety claims. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it includes an endometriosis case treated with laparoscopic rectal anterior resection plus total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

Abstract

Pelvic conditions involving both the colorectum and gynaecological organs are traditionally treated by laparotomy. We report two cases of colorectal cancer and one of endometriosis treated by laparoscopic anterior resection and total hysterectomy bilateral salpingooophorectomy (LapAR & THBSO), at the same session. There have been no previously reported cases of the feasibility of such combined procedures, safely performed. Our results confirm that LapAR & THBSO is feasible and offers the advantages of a laparoscopic procedure in the hands of a well trained laparoscopic colorectal surgeon and gynaecologist working together.
