Restoring intestinal continuity and avoiding stoma creation improve patients\u2019 quality of life postoperatively. We tried to minimize the number of anastomoses, restore intestinal continuity, and avoid stoma creation for 295 patients with stage III\/IV ovarian cancer who underwent low anterior rectal resection (LAR) with or without colon resection during cytoreductive surgery. When the remaining colon could not reach the rectal stump after left hemicolectomy with LAR, we used the following techniques for tension-free anastomosis: right colonic transposition, retro-ileal anastomosis through an ileal mesenteric defect, or an additional colic artery division. Rates of stoma creation and rectal anastomotic were 3% (9\/295) and 6.6% (19\/286), respectively. Among 21 patients in whom the remaining colon did not reach the rectal stump after left hemicolectomy with LAR, 20 underwent tension-free anastomosis, including eight, six, and six patients undergoing right colonic transposition, retro-ileal anastomosis through an ileal mesenteric defect, and an additional colic artery division, respectively. Colorectal anastomosis is feasible for patients with extended colonic resection. Low anastomotic leakage and stoma rates can be achieved with careful attention to colonic mobilization and tension-free anastomosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cancers13164248","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,23]],"date-time":"2021-08-23T21:59:00Z","timestamp":1629755940000},"page":"4248","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Surgical Techniques and Outcomes of Colorectal Anastomosis after Left Hemicolectomy with Low Anterior Rectal Resection for Advanced Ovarian Cancer"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Kyoko","family":"Nishikimi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology, Chiba University Hospital, 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo-ku, Chiba 260-8677, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4013-5674","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shinichi","family":"Tate","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology, Chiba University Hospital, 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo-ku, Chiba 260-8677, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ayumu","family":"Matsuoka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology, Chiba University Hospital, 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo-ku, Chiba 260-8677, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Satoyo","family":"Otsuka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology, Chiba University Hospital, 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo-ku, Chiba 260-8677, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7247-2205","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Makio","family":"Shozu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology, Chiba University Hospital, 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo-ku, Chiba 260-8677, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"582","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajog.2005.03.046","article-title":"Sites of bowel resected to achieve optimal ovarian cancer cytoreduction: Implications regarding surgical management","volume":"193","author":"Hoffman","year":"2005","journal-title":"Am.
