Cytokines as early markers of colorectal anastomotic leakage: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Purpose. Colorectal anastomotic leakage (CAL) is one of the most severe complications after colorectal surgery. This meta-analysis evaluates whether systemic or peritoneal inflammatory cytokines may contribute to early detection of CAL.

Double Rectum Sign: Anastomotic Leakage
A 41-year-old patient presents a prolonged ileus with abdominal tendernesss even days after an anterior resection with total excision of the mesorectum and latero terminal colorectal anastomosis for a rectal adenocarcinoma. The laboratory results reveal elevated CRP levels.

Surgical complications in human orthotopic liver transplantation. [PDF]
Between March 1, 1980 and December 31, 1984, 393 orthotopic liver transplantations (OLT) were performed in 313 consecutive recipients. Technical complications were responsible for a substantial morbidity (41/393 allograft loss--10.4%) and mortality (26 ...

Preoperative chemoradiation versus radiation alone for stage II and III resectable rectal cancer [PDF]
Background : Preoperative radiotherapy (RT) decreases local recurrence rate and improves survival in stage II and III rectal cancer patients. The combination of chemotherapy with RT has a sound radiobiological rationale, and phase II trials of combined ...

Esophagogastric anastomotic leakage.
Anastomotic leakage of esophagogastric anastomoses can be prevented by administering adequate preoperative nutritional support and by employing mechanical circular staplers. In a series of 299 intrathoracic anastomoses, 35 leakages were observed, 11 of which gave asymptomatic radiological findings.

Risk Factors for Anastomotic Leakage after Rectal Cancer Resection and Reconstruction with Colorectostomy. A Retrospective Study with Bootstrap Analysis [PDF]
Background: This study was designed to apply modern statistical methods to evaluate risk factors for anastomotic leakage after rectal cancer resection in a retrospective cohort of patients who received a colorectostomy.
