Abstract
A purse-string instrument was modified to facilitate stapler anastomosis in rectal surgery. The instrument jaw was modified to permit rotation on its axis. The technique described is used to minimize the difficulty related to purse-string placement during low anterior resection of the rectum, especially in males with a narrow pelvis and in obese female patients.
