Radiological appearances of colonic ring staple anastomoses Journal Articles

abstract

• We read with interest the article in BJR by Dr Daley and Mr Crowley (1989) relating the plain radiographic appearances of colonic staple ring to possible anastomotic dehiscence. They suggest that urgent water-soluble contrast medium enema should be performed to confirm the diagnosis.
