Abstract
The EEA stapler now offers an alternative to hand-sewn techniques for primary and staged low colorectal anastomoses. The stapler may allow a safer and lower resection than was previously possible. A review of 52 primary and 8 staged EEA anastomoses is presented, with emphasis on the combined stapler technique.Mesh:
