Significats de natural orifice en anglès

A ring-like muscle which closes a natural orifice.

Purpose: Single-umbilical incision laparoscopic nephrectomy has been recently advocated as an alternative to pure natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.

A transurethral 16F Amplatz sleeve inserted in the ureter under cystoscopic guidance became a natural orifice port after transection of the ureter.

Pancreatic pseudocysts from chronic pancreatitis can now be approached via minimally invasive strategies, including emerging combined laparoscopic procedures and natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.

Conclusions: Laparoscopic nephrectomy combining a single umbilical incision with a natural orifice provided by the ipsilateral ureter is technically feasible in a large animal model.

Background: Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) research has primarily involved case series reports of low-risk procedures.
