Does high tie in anterior resection for rectal cancer confer no increased risk of anastomotic leakage?
In the present population-based setting, use of a high tie was not associated with an increased rate of symptomatic anastomotic leakage.
These results suggest that at the time of admission plasma levels of ANG-2 and ratio of ANG-2/ANG-1 are clinically informative biomarkers to predict fatal CM from MM cases while they have limited usefulness in discriminating fatal CM outcomes in a pool of CM cases in endemic settings of Central India.
