Leakage Rate of Ileo-COlic Sutured Anastomosis After Right Hemicolectomy

Summary

The primary aim of the study is to show that the ileo-colic anastomosis leakage rate until the first 30 days after surgery using MonoPlus® suture material for anastomosis construction after right hemicolectomy is not inferior to the anastomosis leakage rate published in the literature for totally handsewn or stapled-handsewn ileo-colic anastomosis.

Eligibility

* Open or laparoscopic as well as conversion from open to laparoscopic surgery
* Absence of peritoneal carcinomatosis
* Absence of vascular, nervous or bone infiltration
* Age ≥ 18 years
* Written data protection declaration (Written Informed consent)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Left hemicolectomy or left extended hemicolectomy or sigma resection
