Glued versus stapled anastomosis of the colon: An experimental study to determine comparative resistance to intraluminal pressure

Abstract: Healing with absorbable synthetic glue was as good as with staples. Glued anastomoses resisted pressures that were statistically significantly higher than physiological intraluminal colon pressures but lower than stapled ones.

“…Although these differences were all statistically highly significant, the burst and leak pressures should be related to the actual intraluminal pressure that such a transection must withstand. Resting intraluminal pressures in small bowel and colon have been reported around 0 to 7 mmHg [21][22][23]. During intestinal pressure waves, the pressure may rise up to maximum levels of 50 mmHg in the physiological setting [21,23].…”

“…Our results of more than 60 Newton-this equals more than 6 kg force-are likely supraphysiologic, because experimental resection and reanastomosis models measured lower forces [2]. A criticism that is also valid for burst pressure [25]: resting pressures of porcine intestine were 47-fold lower than peak pressures of intact intestine and still 30-fold lower than stapled anastomoses [26].…”

“…5 ). The macroscopic naked eye and endoscopic images observed correspond, according to the scientific literature, to the initial stages of hydrolytic degradation of the Glubran 2 film into water-soluble remains [ 19 , 22 ], which is a process that ends in a time ranging from 30–40 days to 6 months depending on the amount of sealant deposited and on the thickness of the sealant film [ 20 , 22 , 25 ]. Transmural inflammation and ulcerations were described at the histological examination of both types of ESDs, with no evidence of specific differences between the two (Fig.…”
