Effect of preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin in advanced gastric cancer. (2/105)

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Sapylin is one of the biological response modifiers. It has been used in the comprehensive treatment for advanced cancer, and its clinical efficacy has been proved. This study was to evaluate the effect of preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin in treatment of advanced gastric cancer. METHODS: Seventy-nine patients eligible for radical gastrectomy were randomly divided into the treatment group (Sapylin + mitomycin C, 40 patients) and the control group (mitomycin C alone, 39 patients). In the treatment group, 5 KE Sapylin was injected intraperitoneally 48 h before operation and 4 mg of mitomycin C was injected into peritoneal cavity before the closure of the peritoneum. In the control group, only 4 mg mitomycin C was injected into peritoneal cavity before the closure of the peritonium. RESULTS: There was no operative mortality or duodenal stump leakage in the two groups. Postoperative complications were anastomotic leakage (2.5%, 1/40) and incision rupture (2.5%, 1/40) in the treatment group, and incision rupture (2.6%, 1/39) in the control group, with no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The 3-year survival rate was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (76.5% vs. 49.4%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin can raise the 3-year survival rate after radical gastrectomy , without increasing the incidence rate of operative complications. Preoperative intraperitoneal injection of Sapylin is therefore a valuable therapy for advanced gastric cancer in clinic.  (+info)

Recurrent abscess after primary successful endo-sponge treatment of anastomotic leakage following rectal surgery. (5/105)

AIM: To assess long-term efficacy of initially successful endo-sponge assisted therapy. METHODS: Between 2006 and 2009, consecutive patients who had undergone primary successful endo-sponge treatment of anastomotic leakage following rectal cancer surgery were enrolled in the study. Patients were recruited from 6 surgical departments in Vienna. Clinical and oncologic outcomes were assessed through routine endoscopic and radiologic follow-up examination. RESULTS: Twenty patients (7 female, 13 male) were included. The indications for endo-sponge treatment were anastomotic leakage (n = 17) and insufficiency of a rectal stump after Hartmann's procedure (n = 3). All patients were primarily operated for rectal cancer. The overall mortality rate was 25%. The median follow-up duration was 17 mo (range 1.5-29.8 mo). Five patients (25%) developed a recurrent abscess. Median time between last day of endo-sponge therapy and occurrence of recurrent abscess was 255 d (range 21-733 d). One of these patients was treated by computed tomography-guided drainage and in 3 patients Hartmann's procedure had to be performed. Two patients (10%) developed a local tumor recurrence and subsequently died. CONCLUSION: Despite successful primary outcome, patients who receive endo-sponge therapy should be closely monitored in the first 2 years, since recurrence might occur.  (+info)

Laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal carcinoma: complications and management in 132 consecutive patients. (6/105)

AIM: To analyze the clinical manifestations and risk factors of complications in laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR) for rectal cancer patients. METHODS: A series of 132 consecutive patients who received laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer in our center were included. The etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of rectal cancer were studied among the patients with surgery-related complications using both univariate and multivariate regression analysis. RESULTS: No conversion to open surgery was observed and 5 cases converted to hand-assisted laparoscopic operation. The overall morbidity rate was 20.5%. Complications occurred during the operation in 7 patients (5.3%), within 30 postoperative days in 24 patients (18.2%), and within 3 mo in 2 patients (1.5%). The most significant complications were anastomotic leakage (9.1%) and anastomotic hemorrhage (5.3%). Size and location of tumor, pathological staging and preoperative nutrition were significant factors associated with LAR complications, while gender, age and pathological type showed no relevance. Binary logistics regression showed that the size and location of tumor, and pathological staging were independent factors of laparoscopic LAR. All the complications were treated during their onset of clinical manifestations by interventional or conservative therapy. CONCLUSION: Anastomotic leakage is a major complication in laparoscopic LAR. The complications may be associated with tumor size and site, and pathological stage. Interventional therapies are of value in the management of laparoscopic LAR complications.  (+info)

PURPOSE: Colon anastomotic leakage remains a serious and common surgical complication. Animal models are valuable to determine the pathophysiological mechanisms and to evaluate possible methods of prevention. The aim of this study was to develop an optimal model of clinical colon anastomotic leakage in a technically insufficient anastomosis in the mouse. METHODS: A total of 110 mice were used in three pilot studies (1-3) and two experiments (A, B). Due to the high complication rates, the analgesic regimen and surgical techniques were changed throughout the pilot studies/experiments. In the final successful experiment (B), eight and four absorbable sutures were used in the control and intervention anastomoses, respectively, and buprenorphine in chocolate spread was used for pain treatment. RESULTS: In the final model (experiment B), significantly more animals in the intervention group had clinical anastomotic leakage compared with controls (40 vs. 0 %, p = 0.003). The weight loss was greater and ...

Division of Minimally Invasive Colon and Rectal Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Texas Medical School at Houston, Houston, Texas. Objective/Technique: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic (RALS) low anterior resection (LAR) with total mesorectal excision (TME) for rectal cancer has garnered increasing enthusiasm as a result of favorable preliminary results. The technique affords superior visualization, access, and manipulation of tissues in the deep, confined pelvis while maintaining the benefits of minimally invasive surgery. However, a major limitation involves low division of the rectum and mesorectum using the currently available endoscopic stapling devices.. Methods: To overcome this limitation, we perform RALS ultra-LAR with TME and hand-sewn colo-anal anastomosis for the treatment of rectal cancer. Our technique utilizes division and extraction of the rectum through a transperineal ...

Endoscopic-vacuum Assisted Closure of Intrathoracic Postsurgical Leaks - Full Text View - ClinicalTrials.gov  Endoscopic-vacuum Assisted Closure of Intrathoracic Postsurgical Leaks - Full Text View - ClinicalTrials.gov
Intrathoracic leakage is a serious complication after esophageal surgery. The reported incidence of esophageal anastomotic leaks after gastrectomy and esophagectomy ranges from 5% to almost 30%. Within the last 10 years endoscopic treatment has changed the approach to intrathoracic anastomotic leakages. Application of metal clips, injection of fibrin glue and placement of self expanding metal or plastic stents (SEMS/SEPS) have been reported to successfully achieve closure of postoperative anastomotic leaks in approximately 66-100%. Alternative endoscopically treatment modalities are welcome especially in cases of failure of the above mentioned endoscopic treatment modalities to prevent the necessity of surgical reintervention which is associated with high mortality or mutilating surgical outcome such as proximal diversion with cervical esophagostomy.. Vacuum-assisted closure (V.A.C.) is an established treatment modality for extensive cutaneous infected wounds. The V.A.C. system device is based ...

Desorption, diffusion, permeation and leaks  Desorption, diffusion, permeation and leaks
If a vessel is continuously pumped out at a volume flow rate $S$, an equilibrium pressure $p_\mathrm{eq}$ will be produced if the throughput (Formula 1-16) is equal to the leakage rate $Q_L = S\cdot p_\mathrm{eq}$. A system is considered to be adequately tight if the equilibrium pressure $p_\mathrm{eq}$ is approximately 10 % of the working pressure. If, for example, a working pressure of 10-6 hPa is to be attained and the vacuum pump that is being used has a pumping speed of 100 l s-1, the leakage rate should not be more than s 10-6 Pa m3 s-1. Leakage rates $Q_L$ , 10-9 Pa m3 s-1 can usually be easily attained in clean stainless steel vessels. The ultimate pressure achievable after a given period of time $t$ primarily depends upon all of the effects described above and upon the pumping speed of the vacuum pump. The prerequisite is naturally that the ultimate pressure will be high relative to the base pressure of the vacuum pump.. ...

Anastomotic disruption is an uncommon but morbid complication of colon and rectal surgery. This study was designed to evaluate the use of proximal diversion and surgical drainage as an alternative to anastomotic resection in the operative management of patients with anastomotic complications.A retrospective chart review was undertaken of all patients on the colon and rectal surgery service at an academic medical center requiring operative intervention for an anastomotic complication between 1998 and 2005. Demographic data, operative management, morbidity, and mortality were collected and analyzed for each patient.Twenty-seven patients with anastomotic leaks were included in the study. Nineteen patients were managed with proximal diversion and surgical drainage, six patients had resection of their anastomosis and creation of an end colostomy, and two patients were treated by primary reanastomosis. There was 0 percent mortality. Sixty-three percent of the patients treated with proximal diversion ...

The build features Kingspan TEK Building System panels in both 142mm and 172mm widths. 142mm Kingspan TEK Building System panels were used to form the walls, with an additional external layer of 100 mm Kingspan Kooltherm K12 Framing Board to ensure a thermal-bridge free construction and to achieve a U-value of just 0.10 W/m²∙K. The roof was constructed with 172mm Kingspan TEK Building System panels as the increased thickness allows the panel to span further without additional support. Not only did the thicker panels help to preserve the open modern aesthetic of the show home, installing them in a large format also simplified the build and reduced the time spent working at height.. In addition to its high thermal performance and construction benefits, the Kingspan TEK Building System was also specified to help the building achieve low air leakage rates.

Serum Procalcitonin Predicts Anastomotic Leaks in Colorectal Surgery | Physicians Weekly for Medical News, Journals & Articles  Serum Procalcitonin Predicts Anastomotic Leaks in Colorectal Surgery | Physician's Weekly for Medical News, Journals & Articles
Background: Anastomotic leaks in colorectal surgery results in a high morbidity and mortality rate. Serum procalcitonin levels is known as a sensitive and specific marker of sepsis and could be use as a marker for early detection of a leak allowing early intervention. It may help a clinician decide to perform a CT scan even earlier especially when the diagnosis of a leak is uncertain. The aim of this study is to determine whether serum procalcitonin is a good predictor of anastomotic leak in colorectal surgery. Methodology: Between July 2014 until October 2015, 70 patients undergoing colorectal surgery were prospectively analyzed in a single-center tertiary teaching hospital. Demographic and surgical data were obtained. Serum procalcitonin was taken before surgery and at day 3 (72 hours) postoperatively. During the postoperative period, the patients were observed in the ward for features of anastomotic leak and if present, it was managed accordingly. The primary outcome was to prospectively ...

Autori: Scripcariu V, Lungu M, Dragomir R, Lefter L, Radu I, Dragomir C.. Editorial: Chirurgia (Bucur). 2004 Sep-Oct;99(5):305-10, 2004.. Rezumat:. A number of factors have recently led to a more conservative approach for middle or low rectal cancers, making possible sphincter preservation and reducing the number of abdomino perineal excisions of the rectum. We have performed a retrospective analysis on 510 patients operated on in our unit between 1994 and 2003 for rectal cancer. There were a number of 118 anterior resection of rectum; in 20 cases the TME has been performed and in 6 cases a very low anterior resection of rectum was done. The overall operative morbidity rate was 16.10% in direct relation with the distal limit of resection. We note urinary dysfunctions, anastomotic leakage, recto-vaginal fistulas as immediate postoperative complications. With the practice of total mesorectal excision, the use of abdomino perineal excision of the rectum is decreasing. The use of preoperative ...

0129] In the sputtering apparatus used for depositing the oxide semiconductor film 403, the leakage rate of a deposition treatment chamber is set to less than or equal to 1×10-10 Pam3/s. Owing to the low leakage rate of the deposition treatment chamber, the amount of impurities entering the film to be formed by a sputtering method can be reduced. To decrease the leakage rate of the deposition treatment chamber, internal leakage as well as external leakage needs to be reduced. The external leakage refers to inflow of gas from the outside of a vacuum system through a minute hole, a sealing defect, or the like. The internal leakage is due to leakage through a partition, such as a valve, in a vacuum system or due to released gas from an internal member. An open/close portion of the deposition treatment chamber of the sputtering apparatus used for deposition of the oxide semiconductor film 403 is sealed with a metal gasket. For the metal gasket, a metal material covered with iron fluoride, aluminum ...

Evaluation of the cicatrization of left colon anastomoses in the presence of peritonitis: an experimental study on rats  Evaluation of the cicatrization of left colon anastomoses in the presence of peritonitis: an experimental study on rats
INTRODUCTION. In view of the high incidence of infection of the peritoneal cavity in surgical practice, many investigators have the relationship between peritonitis and healing of intestinal anastomoses. Contradictory results have been obtained in studies of the influence of infection on the development of colon anastomoses healing in experimental animals, with some investigators reporting high rates of dehiscense and mortality6,8,21 and others reporting little or no effect of infection on the anastomotic lesion12,18,20. Thus, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of peritonitis on the healing of experimentally induced colon anastomoses in rats.. METHOD. The study was conducted on 40 male rats (Rattus norvegicus albinus, Rodentia mammalia) of the Wistar-Tecpar strain aged 114 to 130 days and weighing on average 298 g. The animals were divided in two groups S (control) and P (experimental).. The animals were anesthetized with ether, weighed and identified. The ventral abdominal ...

From these estimates, odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were computed.. The investigators found no postoperative anastomotic leaks or mortalities in these series.. Overall, endoscopic evaluation of the gastrojejunostomy resulted in the detection of 16% of intraoperative leaks.. The team noted a difference in the incidence of intraoperative leakage for patients, with 21% older than 40 years, and 10% in those younger than 40 years. In the initial 91 cases, the gastrojejunostomy was performed by the end-to-end anastomosis technique..

Although surgical techniques have improved, dehiscence still occurs with a certain frequency, with postoperative esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage occurring at a rate of 0.5-11.0% [1-12]. According to a report of the Japanese National Clinical Database for digestive surgery, the incidence of anastomotic leakage after total gastrectomy was 4.4% (881 of 20,011 cases) in 2011 [12]. The details (whether open or laparoscopic) were not listed in this report, but several studies have indicated that anastomotic leakage is observed significantly more often in laparoscopic surgery than in open total gastrectomy or laparoscopic distal gastrectomy [12-14]. However, conflicting data exist [15], and several studies have reported that the surgeons experience of LTG is related to the rate of anastomosis-related complications [16-20]. According to Jeong et al., multivariate analysis showed that postoperative morbidity significantly differed according to the surgeons experience (fewer than 45 cases) ...

The documentary, as compelling as it is in terms of its endearing underdog humanity, focuses more on the bands attempts to just get a comeback tour off the ground than it does in addressing their allegedly shortchanged legacy, but after an initial surge in popularity after the doc was released Anvil quickly found themselves backsliding toward their previous dearth of prosperity.

The cup has a confining end, a tapered interior wall and a predominantly open end covering the anvil and axially aligned with the anvil for axially receiving a pin that is axially received by the bore of the anvil. The anvil is longitudinally movable along its bore axis with respect to the cup. The spring forces the anvil toward the confining end of the cup. The first set of balls engages the anvil and is forced by the anvil toward the confining end of the cup by the spring. The second set of balls is in the extreme confining end of the cup for clutching the pin. The interior wall of the cup is dimensioned and tapered with respect to the balls to cause the balls of the first and second sets to be in different radial planes and to cause the balls of the second set

The team included studies if they evaluated postoperative complications and defined exposure to individual immunomodulators.. All 11 studies that met the inclusion criteria were observational studies.. The team noted that 2 studies were reported only in abstract form.. A further 5 studies reported risks associated with azathioprine, 5 reported risks associated with cyclosporine, and 3 reported risks associated with infliximab.. The team observed that none of the studies showed an increased risk of either total or infectious complications associated with immunomodulator use.. However, subgroup analysis in 1 study suggested increased rates of anastomotic complications and reoperation associated with azathioprine.. Dr Subramanians team commented, Available evidence does not suggest an increased rate of postoperative complications associated with immunomodulator use. ...

Park Tool Folding Chain Tool With Peening Anvil Reviews | Workshop Tools Reviews | Wiggle  Park Tool Folding Chain Tool With Peening Anvil Reviews | Workshop Tools Reviews | Wiggle
not fit for purpose! I have used various chain tools over the years on chains from 6 to 10 speed without serious issues, then I bought one of these... Problems encountered: 1, It is not possible to free off a link after using the tool to insert a pin as it has no appropriate chain holder pegs. This problem was found on a 9 speed chain, but just looking at the tool this limitation is obvious. 2, It does not work with Campagnolo 10 speed chains as it does not support the chain well. Despite much care it broke the chains assembly guide pin as it drove the pin into the chain at an angle. Luckily my (new!) chain was not damaged, but it cost me a campagnolo assembly pin. 3, The peening anvil slides out of position before sufficient pressure can be applied to the pin. I thought this feature was worth a try before throwing the tool away. Summary: Both times I used this tool it let me down, luckily I had another old, warn, and reliable chain tool available. Be warned. 16 October 2013 ...

Total mesorectal excision - Wikipedia  Total mesorectal excision - Wikipedia
Total mesorectal excision (TME) is a standard technique for treatment of colorectal cancer, first described in 1982 by Professor Bill Heald at the UKs Basingstoke District Hospital. A significant length of the bowel around the tumour is removed, as is the surrounding tissue up to the plane between the mesorectum and the presacral fascia (Healds "holy plane"). Dissection along this plane facilitates a straightforward dissection and preserves the sacral vessels and hypogastric nerves. It is possible to rejoin the two ends of the colon; however, most patients require a temporary ileostomy pouch to bypass the colon, allowing it to heal with less risk of perforation or leakage.[citation needed] TME has become the "gold standard" treatment for rectal cancer in the West. An occasional side effect of the operation is the formation and tangling of fibrous bands from near the site of the operation with other parts of the bowel. These can lead to bowel infarction if not operated on.[citation needed] TME ...

Merck & Co., Inc. announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved INVANZÃ ® (ertapenem), a once-daily injectable antibiotic, for the prophylaxis of surgical site infection (SSI) following elective colorectal surgery in adults. This approval was based upon the results of the landmark PREVENT trial, the largest prospective, randomized double-blind, comparative clinical trial ever conducted in antibiotic prophylaxis for elective colorectal surgery (N=1002). Results from the study were presented today in the New England Journal of Medicine. "Given the high incidence of SSI, Merck is very pleased to be able to offer a new alternative with clinically demonstrated efficacy," said Murray A. Abramson, M.D., M.P.H., senior medical director, Merck Research Labs, Infectious Diseases, Merck & Co. Inc. In the PREVENT study, a statistically significant difference favoring INVANZ over cefotetan with respect to the primary endpoint has been observed. A second adequate and ...

Fatal non-malignant ulceration in the gastric tube after oesophagectomy. | Journal of Clinical Pathology  Fatal non-malignant ulceration in the gastric tube after oesophagectomy. | Journal of Clinical Pathology
The clinical, histological, and necropsy findings of three cases of fatal, nonmalignant ulceration in the gastric tube after oesophageal resection for oesophageal malignancy are presented. The deaths occurred three, 30, and 42 months, respectively, after initial surgery. Two of the patients had received chemoradiotherapy, one at initial presentation, and one for a recurrence 18 months after surgery. In two patients death was due to an aspiration pneumonia, consequent on the development of a gastrobronchial fistula. The third patient died after a massive haematemesis. In none of the cases was there any evidence of residual or recurrent malignancy at necropsy, although in the two cases where radiological and endoscopic assessment was performed before death, recurrent tumour had been clinically diagnosed. As improved surgical techniques reduce the incidence of death due to anastomotic leakage and combined modality treatment regimens offer improved prospects of tumour remission, deaths from other ...

Five stratiform Zn-Pb-Ag deposits are known in Early Cambrian metapelitic rocks along a curvilinear trend in the Anvil Range, central Yukon. The Anvil Range deposits occur along the SW boundary of the Selwyn basin in the stratigraphic transition zone between metapelites of the Mt Mye unit and calcareous phyllites of the overlying Vangorda unit. The massive sulfides are associated closely with anomalously thick graphitic phyllites, apparently related to a second-order basin.-from Authors...

CONTAINMENT EVALUATION OF BREACHED AL-SNF FOR CASK TRANSPORT (Conference) | SciTech Connect  CONTAINMENT EVALUATION OF BREACHED AL-SNF FOR CASK TRANSPORT (Conference) | SciTech Connect
Aluminum-based spent nuclear fuel (Al-SNF) from foreign and domestic research reactors (FRR/DRR) is being shipped to the Savannah River Site. To enter the U.S., the cask with loaded fuel must be certified to comply with the requirements in the Title 10 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Part 71. The requirements include demonstration of containment of the cask with its contents under normal and accident conditions. Al-SNF is subject to corrosion degradation in water storage, and many of the fuel assemblies are failed or have through-clad damage. A methodology has been developed with technical bases to show that Al-SNF with cladding breaches can be directly transported in standard casks and maintained within the allowable release rates. The approach to evaluate the limiting allowable leakage rate, L{sub R}, for a cask with breached Al-SNF for comparison to its test leakage rate could be extended to other nuclear material systems. The approach for containment analysis of Al-SNF follows ...

Left Transthoracic Esophagectomy (Ellis) | Adult Chest Surgery, 2e | AccessSurgery | McGraw-Hill Medical  Left Transthoracic Esophagectomy (Ellis) | Adult Chest Surgery, 2e | AccessSurgery | McGraw-Hill Medical
The advantage of left transthoracic esophagectomy is readily apparent in that it affords a surgical resection with a single incision. In addition to the obvious advantage of decreasing the patients discomfort, the left transthoracic esophagectomy also can be performed in much less time than the Ivor Lewis or McKeown esophagectomy, with operative time averaging 2 to 3 hours.6 The left transthoracic approach does have a number of disadvantages that should be noted. First, although the division of the diaphragm provides excellent visualization of the left upper quadrant of the abdomen via the left chest, the remainder of the abdomen cannot be accessed using this approach. As a result of the limited abdominal exposure, adequate dissection of the pylorus cannot be achieved to perform pyloromyotomy. Many surgeons profess that gastric drainage is an essential component of esophageal reconstruction with gastric conduit placement after esophagectomy and identify the inability to perform a drainage ...

  • For the past decade, we have developed a range of novel endoscopic techniques to manage strictures, fistula, anastomotic leak and abscess, including endoscopic stricturotomy, endoscopic sinusotomy, endoscopic septectomy, endoscopic fistulotomy, endoscopic incision and drainage, endoscopy-guide seton and drainage catheter placement. (clevelandclinic.org)

Predictors1

search

Intestinal3

search
  • We demonstrate that the commensal bacterium Enterococcus faecalis contributes to the pathogenesis of anastomotic leak through its capacity to degrade collagen and to activate tissue matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) in host intestinal tissues. (sciencemag.org)
  • Either elimination of E. faecalis strains through direct topical antibiotics applied to rat intestinal tissues or pharmacological suppression of intestinal MMP9 activation prevented anastomotic leak in rats. (sciencemag.org)
  • We suggest that intestinal microbes with the capacity to produce collagenases and to activate host metalloproteinase MMP9 may break down collagen in the intestinal tissue contributing to anastomotic leak. (igsb.org)

  • Finally, we show in humans undergoing colon surgery and treated with the standard recommended intravenous antibiotics that their anastomotic tissues still contained E. faecalis and other bacterial strains with collagen-degrading/MMP9-activating activity. (igsb.org)

Postoperative day1

search
  • Common post-surgical protocols call for an upper GI series on postoperative day 7, if not sooner, to evaluate for anastomotic leak . (rochester.edu)

Sepsis2

search
  • Although bleeding from the anastomotic site is well documented and various managements have been outlined delayed bleeding from the presacral vein due to pelvic sepsis after total mesorectal excision has not been reported. (sages.org)
  • Nonoperative management is acceptable only in patients who have experienced a contained leak with minimal symptoms and no sign of systemic sepsis. (springer.com)

Peritonitis1

  • Anastomotic Leak" is a descriptor in the National Library of Medicine's controlled vocabulary thesaurus, MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) . (ouhsc.edu)

Symptoms1

search
  • Treatment depends upon the size and extent of leak at imaging in conjunction with the severity of clinical symptoms. (rochester.edu)

Pleural1

Diagnosis1

search
  • It may help a clinician decide to perform a CT scan even earlier especially when the diagnosis of a leak is uncertain. (physiciansweekly.com)

Serum1

search
  • The serum CRP level on POD 3, 4 and 5 had comparable diagnostic accuracy for the development of an anastomotic leak with a pooled area under the curve of 0·81 (95 per cent confidence interval 0·75 to 0·86), 0·80 (0·74 to 0·86) and 0·80 (0·73 to 0·87) respectively. (bjs.co.uk)

  • Outcomes were collected for members with anastomotic leaks versus those without leaks during the initial hospital stay (index) and within 30 days of the procedure. (springer.com)
  • A 65-year-old man was transferred to our hospital service from out of state for an acute presacral anastomotic leak with a large hematoma, resulting in severe rectal bleeding that required blood transfusion. (clevelandclinic.org)
