[Trans-sutural anastomosis. A technical procedure which facilitates the low colorectal anastomosis].

How colorectal anastomosis using a circular suture forceps introduced transanally can be considerably facilitated by the "trans-sutural" anastomosis technique, this avoiding the sometimes difficult operative phase of the distal bursa and allowing reduction of septic phase and performance of anastomosis of surfaces of identical caliber. Crossing of clipping lines, of linear and circular shape, resulting from use of this method lacks any inconveniences. Results are reported in 66 patients treated in this way, confirming the reliability of this type of anastomosis.
