The end-to-end anastomosis by stapling for left colonic and rectal resections is proving to be a relatively safe and fast procedure. Results of a survey of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons reveals 15.1 per cent intraoperative complications, 3.7 per cent early postoperative complications, 0.5 per cent deaths, and 13.8 per cent late complications. The majority of late complications, stenosis and incontinence, were either subclinical or transient for most patients. Technique and prevention of complications are stressed.
用于左半结肠和直肠切除的吻合器端端吻合术已被证明是一种相对安全且快速的手术。美国结直肠外科医师学会的一项调查结果显示，术中并发症发生率为15.1%，术后早期并发症发生率为3.7%，死亡率为0.5%，晚期并发症发生率为13.8%。大多数患者的大多数晚期并发症，如狭窄和失禁，要么是亚临床的，要么是短暂的。文中强调了手术技术及并发症的预防。
