Abstract:
The authors review the literature from 1980 to 1990 about some kinds of digestive anastomosis: esophagogastric and esophagocolic anastomosis at neck, esophagogastric intrathoracic anastomosis, esophagojejunal anastomosis, colorectal anastomosis. They compare the results of manual versus mechanical procedure in the light of recent personal clinical experience.
