[Late anastomotic leakage in right-sided hemicolectomy with robot-assisted intracorporeal anastomosis technique]

A 65-year-old male with disseminated prostate cancer and newly diagnosed colonic cancer underwent elective robotic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis and had an uncomplicated short-term postoperative course. More than two years after the index operation, the patient presented with a late anastomotic leakage and underwent reoperation with re-anastomosis. This case report describes an atypical late anastomotic leakage in a patient treated with intracorporeal ileocolic anastomosis.
