Summary

Anastomotic leak is a commonly seen post-operative complication in patients who undergo bowel anastomosis. The outcome of which can range from conservative management to re-exteriorisation of bowel loop. This apart from financial distress can cause psychological impact on patient and his/her family. Understanding the risk factors identified, such as age, chronic diseases, anemia, and surgical variables, can aid healthcare providers in risk assessment, preoperative optimization, and postoperative monitoring to reduce the occurrence of anastomotic leaks.

By implementing strategies to address these risk factors, healthcare systems can improve patient outcomes, reduce complications, and enhance the quality of care provided to individuals undergoing surgical procedures, ultimately contributing to better public health outcomes and healthcare resource utilization.
