  • Title: [Pitfalls in the end-to-side anastomosis with the circular mechanical suture stapler].
    Author: Adloff M, Ollier JC, Arnaud JP.
    Journal: Presse Med; 1983 May 14; 12(21):1359-61. PubMed ID: 6222319.
    Abstract:
    During end-to-side mechanical anastomosis with a circular stapler, an intestinal fold may be caught between the anvil and the loader resulting in obstruction, to a varying degree, of the efferent segment of the loop. This can be avoided by careful spreading of the bowel over the loader opposite the future anastomotic area.
