title: New technique for anastomosis of the intestine after the Hartmann's procedure with the end-to-end anastomosis stapler.
abstract: The technique presented is safe and fast. Mobilization and opening of the pouch are avoided. Identification of the ureters are not necessary. Introduction of the end-to-end anastomosis stapler into the rectum without the anvil is made safe. Even though we used the straight end-to-end anastomosis stapler, the curved one would seem to be more suitable for this kind of anastomosis.
