Postoperative complications were encounted in six, three were mild strictures and the other three were minor leakages. All were not severe, demonstrating no correlation to the conditions of the anastomosis and subsided by conservative therapy in a short period. Anastomotic leakage occurred in three but these were based on technical problems and it is possible to avoid with careful surgical management. In conclusion, DST is of great benefit for the treatment of carcinoma of the rectum to reduce the consuming operation time and to lessen the risk of bacteriological and oncological contaminations., Acta medica Nagasakiensia. 1988, 33(1-4), p.251-253}, pages = {251--253}, title = {Application of double stapling technique after anterior resection for rectal cancer}, volume = {33}, year = {1988} }
