    Journal: Kurume Med J; 2002; 49(3):149-51. PubMed ID: 12471729.
    Abstract:
    When a simple procedure such as bougie, balloon dilation and transanal incision are not effective for severe stenosis after colorectal anastomotic leakage, a surgical operation is required. We report a case of transanal dilation using circular stapling for severe stricture in the colorectal anastomosis following low anterior resection.
