Abstract
PURPOSE: Our aim was to develop a Kono-S anastomotic technique using surgical staplers. METHODS: Two patients underwent stapled Kono-S anastomosis, one via abdominal and one transanal approach. RESULTS: The approach for an abdominal and transanal stapled Kono-S anastomosis is detailed. CONCLUSION: The Kono-S anastomosis can be safely configured using common surgical staplers.
