          Abstract

          Introduction and importance

          Anastomotic stenosis after low anterior resection is a serious complication and at times even requires surgical revision of the anastomosis.

          Case presentation and clinical discussion

          The patient presented with a 4.0 cm tubulovillous adenoma of the proximal rectum and underwent low anterior resection with loop ileostomy and subsequent reversal. The case was complicated by complete anastomotic stenosis. A novel technique was utilized to create an Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)-guided neo-anastomosis endoscopically.

          Conclusion

          EUS-guided creation of a neo-colorectal anastomosis is a safe and effective alternative to surgical anastomosis revision of a completely stenosed anastomosis.

          Highlights

          • Anastomotic stenosis after low anterior resection (LAR) is a serious complication.

          • Resection and reanastomosis of stenotic region may be necessary.

          • Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)-guided creation of a neo-colorectal anastomosis is a viable alternative.

          The SCARE 2020 Guideline: Updating Consensus Surgical CAse REport (SCARE) Guidelines

          The SCARE Guidelines were first published in 2016 and were last updated in 2018. They provide a structure for reporting surgical case reports and are used and endorsed by authors, journal editors and reviewers, in order to increase robustness and transparency in reporting surgical cases. They must be kept up to date in order to drive forwards reporting quality. As such, we have updated these guidelines via a DELPHI consensus exercise.

            Management of benign anastomotic strictures following rectal resection: a systematic review.

            Benign anastomotic strictures following colorectal surgical resection are a commonly under-reported complication in up to 30% of patients, with a significant impact upon quality of life. In this systematic review, we aim to assess the utility of endoscopic techniques in avoiding the need for surgical reintervention.
