title: [The BAR-Valtrac for the colon].
abstract: The authors present their experience with biofragmentable anastomosis in the area of the colon in 42 patients where they used a biofragmentable ring Valtrac, Davis-Geck Co. to restores continuity after resection. The authors focus their attention on the peroperative technical difficulty of construction of the anastomosis proper and on complications encountered during the immediate postoperative course. The most serious among them is, no doubt, dehiscence of the anastomosis. Based on this experience, the authors express their opinion on the simplicity of the implementation proper of a BAR anastomosis and problems of postoperative complications.
