OBJECTIVES: Classical Hirschsprung disease (HD) is defined by the absence of ganglion cells in the rectosigmoid colon. The diagnosis is made from rectal biopsy, which reveals the aganglionosis and the presence of cholinergic hyperinnervation. However...
Although circular staplers offer technical advancements over traditional hand-sewn techniques, their use remains challenging for unskilled users, necessitating substantial time and experience for mastery. In particular, it is challenging to apply a c...
BACKGROUND: With steep posterior anorectal angulation, transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) may have a risk of dissection in the wrong plane or starting higher up, resulting in leaving distal mesorectum behind. Although the distal mesorectal m...
BACKGROUND: Current evidence about intraoperative anastomotic testing after left-sided colorectal resections is still controversial. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of Indocyanine Green fluorescent angiography (ICG-FA) and air-leak te...
