The analysis of extravasated intraluminal substances in drain fluid has shown promise for the early detection of AL. The aim of this study is to assess the measurement of drain fluid iodine as a biomarker of AL.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective, observational, 2b exploration cohort study measured the iodine in drain fluid of patients undergoing a low colorectal anastomosis and without a diverting ileostomy (DI) when the rectal tube was flushed with Gastrografin\u00ae.

Five patients experienced an AL. Four had grade C AL and returned to the operating theatre for peritoneal lavage and DI. The fifth was diagnosed at 30\u2009days postoperatively and underwent image\u2010guided drainage (grade B). The mean drain fluid iodine was significantly elevated in patients who experienced an AL compared with those who did not, as measured by DECT and ICPMS.
