Compression Anastomosis by Biofragmentable Rings

Mehr zum Buch

Biofragmentable anastomoses rings offer a standardized and secure technique for performing various types of gastrointestinal anastomoses—end to end, end to side, and side to side—without the need for auxiliary tools. This practicality is enhanced by the material's ability to be expelled without residuals, leading to a low complication rate in controlled studies. The text emphasizes the importance of identifying specific indications and contraindications for their use. Two chapters focus on upper gastrointestinal anastomoses, including those of the esophagus, and the application of biofragmentable anastomoses rings in inflammatory bowel disease. These sections analyze data and share experiences from clinical research groups. The aim is to communicate experimental findings and deepen the understanding of the pathophysiology involved in the healing of anastomoses through compression techniques. Contributions include experimental research, histological and clinical aspects of early healing, and comparisons between biofragmentable and stapled anastomoses in experimental studies. This comprehensive approach seeks to advance knowledge in the field and improve surgical outcomes.
