Anastomotic leaks are common in colorectal surgery¹ and serve as a significant driver of mortality and cost.² Efforts at reducing the incidence of leaks have been most successful when nutritional deficits are addressed before surgery and when the construction of an end or diverting stoma is considered in patients perceived to be at higher risk for a leak.³ However, diversion does not prevent a radiographic leak, and it may not avoid a clinical leak either.

经肛门引流管——防止泄漏或不必要的集水槽？

吻合口漏在结直肠手术中很常见¹并且是死亡率和成本的重要驱动因素。²当在手术前解决营养缺乏问题以及考虑在被认为具有较高渗漏风险的患者中建造末端或分流造口时，降低渗漏发生率的努力最为成功。³但是，分流并不能防止放射线泄漏，也可能无法避免临床泄漏。
