“…Other procedures and use of devices have been described to manage anastomotic stenosis transluminally: staple cutter, 13 endoscopic transanal resection or selfexpanding metallic stents, 26 transanally circular stapler, [27][28][29] and transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEMS). 30 The success rate of nonsurgical treatment depends on the type of stenosis and the nature of the surgically treated disease.…”

Algunos autores también han publicado buenos resultados con resección endoscópica transanal (20). En casos que no han respondido a otro tipo de medidas o bien en los que había problema de diagnóstico diferencial con tumor, se ha recurrido a resección quirúrgica del segmento afecto (24).…”
