The everted rectal stump technique for the application of the distal pursestring suture was used successfully in three patients to perform a low stapled reconstructive anastomosis in the treatment of carcinoma of the rectum. Two of the patients were Dukes' Stage B and one patient was classified as Dukes' Stage C. The postoperative course was uneventful. There were no complications and all three were free of tenesmus and cutaneous irritation and were continent of flatus and feces, with one to three movements per day.
