Summary

Most surgeons suggest the use of fecal diverting to address the high morbidity and mortality associated with anastomotic leakage (AL) in patients with high risk factors on AL who are undergoing anterior resections. Although debate about the use of defunctioning stoma continues, meta-analyses and randomized multicenter trial results support the use of defunctioning stoma in lower anterior resection(LAR). This exploratory study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new diversion method called spontaneously closed cannula ileostomy (SCCI), which was designed to protect rectal anastomosis in patients with high risk factors on AL. Results of SCCI were compared to those of the loop ileostomy (LI) method.
