A case of low anterior resection for carcinoma rectum is presented for the compression anastamosis done using compression anastamotic ring (CAR). The compression anastamosis has low leak rate compared to staplers. CAR is made up of nitinol - metal alloy of nickel and titanium (1). A 43 year old female was on neo- adjuvant chemo -radiotherapy for lower one third rectal carcinoma, underwent low anterior resection with compression anastomosis and a proximal diversion ileostomy.

Abstract


A case of low anterior resection for carcinoma rectum is presented for the compression anastamosis done using compression anastamotic ring (CAR). The compression anastamosis has low leak rate compared to staplers. CAR is made up of nitinol - metal alloy of nickel and titanium (1). A 43 year old female was on neo- adjuvant chemo -radiotherapy for lower one third rectal carcinoma, underwent low anterior resection with compression anastomosis and a proximal diversion ileostomy.
