Low Anterior Rectal Resection; The Impact of Anastomotic Fistula on Incidence and Severity of Low Anterior Resection Syndrome
Abstract
:Highlights
- ✓
- Despite its higher frequency, anastomotic leakage does not appear to substantially increase the risk of LARS.
- ✓
- Conversely, the main factors influencing the occurrence of LARS included neoadjuvant chemotherapy and biological sex.
