Multiple Firings in Double-stapled Colorectal Anastomosis

Completed
Conditions
Rectal Cancer
Registration Number
NCT05498506
Lead Sponsor
Shanghai Minimally Invasive Surgery Center
Brief Summary

Multiple linear stapler firings during double stapling technique (DST) is associated with anastomotic leakage (AL) after laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR). We aim to investigate the risk factors and then to develop a deep learning model to predict the usage of ≥3 linear stapler cartridges during DST anastomosis.
