Dubai: A new minimally invasive technique to treat cancer of the rectum, introduced in the UAE for the first time, is providing patients a better chance at quality of life. The Transanal Minimal Invasive Surgery (TAMIS), which has been available globally for ten years, has been introduced with success at the Fakeeh University Hospital, Dubai.
Minimal chance of local recurrence of tumour
When treated with this technique in the early stages, it offers less than three per cent chances of local recurrence as per global data on relatively new technique, which has been prevalent for ten years. A young 30-year old Iraqi woman who underwent the surgery at the FUH on December 15, has recovered very well less than 24 hours post-surgery.
