In multivariate analysis, anastomotic level (OR 6.855; 95% CI 1.271 to 36.964) and operation time (OR 8.115; 95% CI 1.982 to 33.222) were significantly associated with anastomotic leakage.

Overview

Supports risk stratification in non-diverted cases; observational data leave open need for prospective validation before practice change.

Structured PICO

What are the risk factors for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic rectal resection without a diverting ileostomy?

P
Population
156 patients who underwent a laparoscopic rectal resection without a diverting ileostomy between March 2003 and December 2008 (96.2% malignant disease, 61.5% male).

Anastomotic leakagesafety

Low anastomosis and long operation time are significant risk factors for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic rectal resection without a diverting ileostomy.
