| Abstract |
Our novel approach is a hybrid between transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) and single-port laparoscopy that we have termed TransAnal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS). We report the clinical application of this technique and present preliminary data that show TAMIS to be an effective tool for resection of both malignant and benign lesions of the rectum. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 33. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 May 2021.
All research outputs
#1,070,165
of 23,343,453 outputs
Outputs from Surgical Endoscopy
#70
of 6,185 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,510
of 95,084 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Surgical Endoscopy
#1
of 38 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,343,453 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,185 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 95,084 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 38 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its contemporaries.
