Sutureless functional end-to-end anastomosis using a linear stapler with polyglycolic acid felt for intetinal anastomoses

Conclusion Sutureless functional end-to-end anastomosis using the Endo GIA™ Reinforced appears to be safe, efficacious, and straightforward. Reinforcement of the crotch site with a bioabsorbable polyglycolic acid sheet appears to mitigate conventional problems with crotch-site vulnerability.
