Anastomotic-leak-open-access-articles.php

Anastomotic leaks are described as 'a leak from a surgical join' of luminal contents. They are the most important complication to recognize after gastrointestinal surgery. It is important to diagnose, resuscitate and treat an anastomotic leak early. Delay leads to prolonged luminal infection of the abdomen or lungs, leading to serious sepsis and progression to multi-organ failure and death. Anastomotic leakage is a major concern in obese patients as they may encounter further intraoperative technical complications, comorbidities, and secondary neoadjuvant chemoradiation (NCRT) cure delays). However, no significant differences between obese and non-obese patients were reported in the majority of studies included in this review that assessed this concern in CRC or only rectal cancer. Open access journals comply with well-established peer review processes, and maintain high standards of publishing.
