Abstract：
:The authors report their experience using biofragmentable anastomosis ring (BAR) in bowel anastomosis. Starting January 1993 to February 1994, 46 intestinal anastomoses were performed using BAR, and particularly 39 end-to-end colo-colostomies, 2 end-to-side colo-colostomies and 5 end-to-side ileo-colostomies. 35 patients were affected by colonic neoplasm, 5 patients by diverticular colonic complications- and 5 patients by several unusual bowel diseases. Four emergency operations were performed, while 42 patients had an accurate bowel preparation before surgery. In this series of patients one case of preoperative mortality is reported, due to massive pulmonary embolism. Instead several minor complications occurred in other patients, such as paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (one case), basal pleuritis (one case), hyperpyrexia (three cases), temporary subocclusion or delayed canalization (five cases). Only one patient suffered from intestinal occlusion induced by adhesions and a second laparotomy was required. Delayed canalization seems to be caused by the small size of the BAR employed (25 mm) or by inadequate intestinal preparation, that usually occurs in emergency operations. After surgery all patients were followed up and 18 of them were examined by coloscopy six months after surgery. No clinical problem connected with bowel anastomosis was reported and all anastomosis looked quite previous and resilient. No anastomotic stenosis was found. In our experience and from recent reviewed reports, BAR seems to be a rapid, effective and safe device for sutureless bowel anastomosis.
