Article Synopsis
  • This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the clinical and functional outcomes of side-to-end anastomosis versus colonic J-pouch (CJP) anastomosis after anterior resection for rectal cancer.
  • The study included 1,125 patients from eight randomized controlled trials and two observational studies, assessing outcomes such as complications and bowel function.
  • Results showed that while most parameters were similar between the two techniques, the side-to-end group had better anal resting pressure two years post-surgery, and further high-quality research is needed to evaluate long-term outcomes.
