[Use of compression suturing device for colorectal anastomoses]
Abstract
78 patients with rectal cancer were operated on with the use of a new-generation compression suturing device for colorectal anastomosis. There were no complications and deaths postoperatively. Long-term follow-up revealed no contractures of the anastomotic zone. All patient demonstrated a satisfactory quality of life index after 6 months postoperatively.
