title: [Concerning 50 low colorectal anastomosis by mechanical suture (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors report 50 cases of low colorectal anastomosis performed with a Russian circular suture apparatus : the KC-28. They reserved this technique for all tumors situated more than 4 cm above the anorectal function and for which the exeresis required a dissection below the peritoneal reflection. Their study seems to confirm the impression that this technique maintains a sphincteral function while decreasing the operatory difficulties encountered during the production of similar anastomosis and far from compromises the cancerology value of the resection. The postoperative complications seem no more frequent than for the classical techniques. The only minor inconvenience being a anastomotic stricture in 24% of the cases.
