There are three types of fiber optic cable commonly used: single mode, multimode and plastic optical fiber (POF). Transparent glass or plastic fibers which allow light to be guided from one end to the other with minimal loss. Fiber optic cable functions as a light guide, guiding the light introduced at one end of the cable through to the other end. The light source can either be a light-emitting diode (LED)) or a laser.
The end-to-end type is indicated when the bowel lumina are of roughly equal circumference (eg, in rectal resection). The end-to-side type is used when the proximal end is a smaller lumen that is connected to the side of the larger lumen (eg, in an ileocolic anastomosis after a right hemicolectomy) (Fig 17).
