Brief Summary

Elective diverting ileostomy may reduce consequences of anastomotic failure in laparoscopic TME. Aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of elective diverting ileostomy, its impact on the incidence and clinical behavior of anastomotic leakage and the complications related to its presence and take down were analyzed.
