In this AIS event, expert faculty reviews key factors for safe and reproducible colorectal anastomosis. The session addresses compression mechanics, tissue response, and perfusion in low pelvic anatomy, and further explores anastomotic integrity testing and leak prevention strategies through a case discussion on laparoscopic low anterior resection with intracorporeal anastomosis.

Robotic surgery has revolutionized complex procedures, offering enhanced precision, dexterity, and visualization for surgeons. In the context of Low Anterior Resection (LAR), both a totally robotic technique and a laparoscopic hybrid approach can be performed. Although both techniques have demonstrated similar outcomes, robotics has shown immense potential in improving patient outcomes and quality of life. In this event, featuring experts in the field, we will explore the diverse aspects of optimizing robotic surgery in LAR patients. These experts will share their insights to keep you updated on the cutting-edge techniques and technologies driving the field forward.
