Latero-lateral end anastomosis for right hemicolectomy using staplers

The Japanese journal of surgery volume 16, pages 460–463 (1986)Cite this article

Abstract

In seven patients undergoing right hemicolectomy for benign or malignant diseases, latero-lateral end anastomoses were made using stapling devices, LS (linear stapler) and GIA (gastrointestinal anastomosis). As no complications directly related to the anastomosis occurred, we conclude that anastomosis using stapling devices for right hemicolectomy is a safe and rapid procedure.
