Leakage after surgery for rectum cancer; inconsistency in reporting to the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group? [PDF]
Purpose. Anastomotic leakage accounts for up to 1/3 of all fatalities after rectal cancer surgery. Evidence suggests that anastomotic leakage has a negative prognostic impact on local cancer recurrence and long-term cancer specific survival. The reported
