Core Tip	This case represents the first transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) approach for full-thickness excision to treat organ restricted amyloidosis of the rectum, a very rare entity requiring high suspicion for diagnosis and treatment. Although TEM is the preferred modality to treat early rectal cancers and rectal adenomas, it should also be considered for other benign and non-advanced rectal lesions, such as localized amyloidoma. TEM is a less invasive procedure that provides lower morbidity and mortality by decreasing incidence of local recurrence and complications while preserving rectal continence and function.
