AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The Authors refer their early experience with the treatment of 4th grade haemorrhoids and 4th grade with mucosal prolapse using a circular stapler. The operation is quite easy with a short learning period, with no short term complications and low post-operative pain. The good results need to be confirmed on a large number of cases and a longer follow-up.

Current evidence on powered versus manual circular staplers in colorectal surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Int J Colorectal Dis
January 2025
Colorectal Surgery Unit, Department of General and Digestive Surgery, Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valencia, Av. Blasco Ibáñez, 17. 46010, Valencia, Spain.
Purpose: This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the efficacy of powered circular staplers (PCS) compared to manual circular staplers (MCS) in reducing anastomotic leakage (AL) and postoperative bleeding (AB) in colorectal surgery.
Methods: Extensive searches were performed in the Embase, PubMed, and SCOPUS electronic bibliographic databases. Most studies were of an observational nature, and only one randomized clinical trial was identified.
10-Year outcomes of marginal ulcer formation and impact of gastrojejunostomy technique in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Division for General/GI Surgery, Department of Surgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts. Electronic address:
Background: Marginal ulcers (MUs) are potential complications following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. Our institution performs 3 different laparoscopic gastrojejunal anastomosis (GJA) techniques. The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence of MUs between 25-mm circular stapler (CS), linear stapler (LS), and hand-sewn (HS) GJA techniques using data collected over a 10-year period.

Department of Upper Gastrointestinal and Bariatric Surgery, University Hospitals Sussex (St Richard's Hospital), Chichester, UK.
Introduction: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) reversal might be necessary to alleviate refractory surgical or nutritional complications, such as postprandial hypoglycemia, malnutrition, marginal ulceration, malabsorption, chronic diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, gastro-esophageal reflux disease, chronic pain, or excessive weight loss. The surgical technique of RYGB reversal is not standardized; potential strategies include the following: (1) gastro-gastrostomy: hand-sewn technique, linear stapler, circular stapler; (2) handling of the Roux limb: reconnection or resection (if remaining intestinal length ≥ 4 m).
Case Presentation: We demonstrate the surgical technique of a laparoscopic reversal of RYGB with hand-sewn gastro-gastrostomy and resection of the alimentary limb with the aim of improving the patient's quality of life.
Surgical management of candy cane syndrome after Roux-en-Y bypass.
Surg Obes Relat Dis
November 2024
Department of Surgery, Mayo Clinic Florida, Jacksonville, Florida. Electronic address:
Background: Candy cane (CC) syndrome is a complication that occurs following Roux-en-Y bypass (RYGB), implicated as a long, small-bowel blind limb at gastrojejunostomy possibly caused using circular staplers.
Objectives: We aimed to report our experience with CC resection and improving outcomes following RYGB.
Setting: University hospital.
Configuration of anastomotic doughnuts of stapled anastomoses in upper gastrointestinal surgery is associated with anastomotic leakage.
Eur J Surg Oncol
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Technical University of Munich (TUM), TUM School of Medicine and Health, TUM University Hospital, Munich, Germany.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the configuration of anastomotic doughnuts from upper gastrointestinal surgeries was associated with anastomotic leakage (AL).
Background: AL is a severe postoperative complication after upper gastrointestinal cancer surgeries. AL is associated with an increase in overall and cancer-related morbidity and mortality in patients with esophageal and gastric cancer.
