Abstract

This review aimed to define and evaluate the new technique which telescopic anastomosis in managing intestinal injuries like leakages. The method gives a fast, secure, and easy approach in limiting intestine leakages. Moreover, the need to determine the credibility of telescopic anastomosis made the research focus on comparing the new technique with the suturing method. The study applied 18 dogs weighing approximately 20-30 kg and divided into two groups (A and B). All the animals were injected with intra-abdominal infection using small perforation in the bowel. Primarily, the animals were left to settle for almost 24 hours before closing the perforation by telescopic anastomosis in group B and simple hand suturing for group A. Notably, the animals were operated after some time, and the anastomosis regions have taken for radiologic analysis. The results showed stenosis in 6 animals of group B because of telescopic anastomosis even without a leakage. Thus, the outcomes provided telescopic anastomosis as an essential method to repair intestine leakages compared to other methods like a suture.
