Results In this group, stapler technique was used in 15 cases, anastomotic ring was used in 3 cases, and one-layer suture was used in 3 cases. The time of these operations was between 118 min and 240 min (mean 164 min). Neither stomal leak nor stomal stenosis occurred, acute ileus occurred in 2 cases, and both recovered after the treatments of gastrointestinal decompression, inhibition of secretion digestive juice and reoperation.
