End to End Anastomosis With Omega Suture Versus End to Anterior Rectal Wall In Colorectal Anastomosis in Sigmoid and Upper Rectal Cancer
Sponsor: Ain Shams University
Summary
The aim of this study is to compare end to end anastomosis with omega suture versus end to anterior rectal wall in colorectal anastomosis as regard post operative anastomotic leakage, bowel function, operative time and intra operative blood loss.

End to end with Omega suture
After the rectum was divided with a linear stapler, the circular stapler was placed allowing the anvil rod to penetrate the rectal stump near the linear stapler line. An omega suture including both ends of the linear stapler line was placed. The linear stapler line was approximated around the anvil rod of the circular stapler in an omega shape fashion as the omega suture was tied. This technique resulted in a complete resection of linear stapler line by the circular stapler.
End to anterior rectal wall
A burse string suture was applied over the anvil of the circular stapler at the transection point of the descending colon using prolene 2/0. The circular stapler introduced though the anus and its rod directed toward the anterior rectal wall and colorectal anastomosis was performed.
