Summary: | 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.
A case of a 52‐year‐old female patient with a rectal duplication cyst is reported. Smooth and safe surgery can be expected with robot assistance when a large tumor occupies a narrow pelvis, which is difficult to operate with conventional surgery. |
