title: Re-resection of the short cicatricial stenosis of colorectal anastomoses with EEA stapler.
abstract: Following 245 stapled anastomoses reoperation was necessary in 4 cases because of non-tumourous stenoses. In each of the 4 cases re-resection was performed according to authors' method, with EEA stapler, without the mobilisation of the rectum. The method is considered suitable for non-tumourous anastomotic stenoses involving short rectal segments.
