    Abstract:
    Anastomotic leakage represents the most dangerous complication in digestive surgery and, particularly, in colorectal one. Indeed a careful evaluation and modification of all possible risk factors and a correct procedure aren't often enough to overcome a potential postoperative leakage or at least material filtration. The Authors review their series to analyse the role of all possible general and local risk factors and to verify what conditions can suggest an two or three stages operation.
