Current treatment options for colorectal lesions most often include flexible endoscopy or open/laparoscopic surgery. Both approaches have procedural limitations that can have considerable impact on patient care. Traditional endoscopic tools have technical inadequacies, ones that inhibit the physician's ability to complete more complex tasks consistent with a surgical technique. Conversely a traditional open or laparoscopic surgical approach involves increased chance of complications (such as surgical site infection), more pain & blood loss, longer recovery and larger surgical scars. This clinical study proposes the use of an endoluminal robotic technology that is designed to improve patient outcomes for colorectal lesions. This system allows physicians to perform many types of complex endoluminal procedures with more precision, flexibility, and control than that of conventional endoscopic, open or laparoscopic surgical techniques. Using this robotic system, surgeons can perform delicate and complex endoluminal procedures that may have been difficult or impossible with other methods, and could have positive impact on outcomes, recovery time, and overall patient care. Patients will undergo the procedure using the ColubrisMX ELS System, and its initial safety and efficacy outcomes will be assessed intraoperatively and postoperatively at discharge and days 7 and 30.
