Does Suturing the Peritoneum and Anterior Rectus Sheath Affect the Safety of Temporary Loop Ileostomy After Laparoscopic Anterior Rectal Resection

In the era of laparoscopy, ileostomy via specimen extraction site has been proposed as a novel approach for temporary ostomy creation to prevent anastomotic leak after laparoscopic low anterior rectal resection. Whether suturing the layer of the peritoneum and anterior rectus sheath affects the safety of this novel approach has not been investigated.
