  • Title: Experience using the circular (EEA) stapling device to perform the anastomosis in right hemicolectomy.
    Author: Crowson MC, Middleton MD.
    Journal: Ann R Coll Surg Engl; 1984 Jul; 66(4):286-7. PubMed ID: 6742744.
    Abstract:
    The EEA circular stapling instrument has been used to create an end to side anastomosis in 50 consecutive routine and emergency right colonic resections. This has proved to be an effective, rapid method of creating the anastomosis with low anastomotic complication rate (4%).
