title: [Colectomy by combined resection-anastomosis using linear mechanical sutures].
abstract: In the technique described, anastomosis is started with a GIA mechanical stapler then completed with a TA stapler followed by resection of the segment involved. We prefer this technique to other mechanical procedures (triangulation, circular anastomosis) in all colectomies which do not require lower colorectal anastomosis. It is simple, economical and solves problems of incongruence. Finally--and this is the most important point in surgery of the colon--it considerably shortens the septic operative stages.
