Area of Science:

  • Gastrointestinal Surgery
  • Surgical Techniques
  • Medical Devices

Context:

  • Mechanical anastomosis using staplers is an evolving technique in gastrointestinal surgery.
  • Assessing the efficacy and safety of stapled mechanical anastomosis is crucial for surgical practice.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the possibilities and advantages of using mechanical staplers for gastrointestinal anastomosis.
  • To assess the reliability and complication rates of mechanical anastomosis in various gastrointestinal surgeries.

Summary:

  • The study reviews the application of mechanical staplers in gastrointestinal surgery, highlighting its speed, simplicity, and reliability.
  • Ninety-five mechanical anastomoses were evaluated, demonstrating a minimal rate of postoperative complications, though three cases of dehiscence were noted.
