[Intraoperational and postoperational complications of colo-rectal anastomosis prepared by classical and stapler techniques].
Resectional surgery on rectum, finishing with continued colo-rectal anastomosis by the classical manual technique, were burdened by a great number of post surgery complications of dehiscentio over 60%. If we take into reconsideration a high number of mortality 5-20% then we have valid reasons for developing modern and safer methods of surgical intervention of these patients. Two groups of 60 patients each, have been analyzed. They have been operated at the Surgical clinic University Clinical Center Tuzla because of rectum malignancy. The first group of patients where the colo-rectal anastomosis was manually operated was done between 1995-1998. In the second group of the patients being operated, colorectal continuity was done by stapler. The patients were operated in time period 2001-2002. The medium evaluation time was 20 months, for each group. All the patients were operated in elective programme, after endoscopic treatment and ph diagnosis done. The patients from the both analyzed groups were operated by the same surgeons. Preoperational procedure and postoperational observation was fullfilled according to the unified protocol. The patients with their colo-rectal continuity having been by stapler had a shorter surgery time, and less transfusion of blood. They had less ureter lesion. Also they have got a shorter hospitalization time with less number of anastomotic complications. Dehiscenc as well as bleeding. The patients with colorectal anastomosis made manually had more repeated surgeries. The patients from the manual group of the surgeries had more anastomotic relapses. The difference in the number of post operational strictures in both analyzed groups was not noticed. The patients with stapler colorectal anastomosis had no mortality. The manual group had one lethal case. The important thing that is noticed is a larger number of stapler colorectal anastomosis, not because of the illnes incidence increase but decrease of abdominoperineal rectum amputation. The patients have been safely operated from the oncologic point of wiev. They have continuing anastomosis which was not burdened with a larger number of morbidity and mortality. This was possible to do by improving surgical strategy and technique and introduction of stapler in every day surgical practice.
