Abstract
Experimental data have led to the conclusion that a transanal partial or subtotal colonic resection can safely be performed in the dog without entering the peritoneal cavity. The techniques of intussusception of the colon at the anus and resection of the colon at the perineum with modified use of the EEATM stapler are presented.
