There are two techniques for low anastomosis of colon to rectum: the suture technique and the EEA (end-to-end anastomosis) stapler technique. The EEA stapler technique has allowed very low anastomoses to be performed that were previously thought to …

Read how the EEA™ circular stapler with Tri-Staple™ technology outperformed the Ethicon Echelon Circular™* powered stapler — with 140% greater perfusion into the staple line.

The EEA circular stapler is a sophisticated instrument designed to create secure and reliable connections between organs or vessels during surgical procedures. It comprises three primary components: the stapler head, the anvil, and the shaft.

May 2, 2020 · The EEA stapling anvil is placed into the colotomy, and purse string is cinched down (Fig. 18.4c). The anastomosis is then created by passing the stapling device transanally and deploying the spike through the rectal stump.

Jun 12, 2016 · The stapled straight end-to-end anastomosis (EEA) is the standard low colorectal anastomotic technique . Although this low anastomosis frees the patient from a colostomy, unfortunately, it has a high rate of anastomotic leak and bowel dysfunction.

Dec 6, 2024 · EEA Stapler. The EEA stapler is needed if there is going to be an ‘end to end’ anastomosis performed. EEA= e nd to e nd a nastomosis. This stapler will be used through the patient’s rectum. This will require a separate set-up which will be your ‘dirty’ set-up.

We begin by placing an EEA 29 anvil into the patient's abdomen through the lap cap which necessitates briefly undocking the robotic arm accessing through this port. We make an enterotomy distal to our transection point in the colon.

Introduction: We describe an easy technique to connect the anvil and center rod of the EEA™ OrVil™. Materials and surgical technique: The bulb tip of EEA OrVil was orally inserted slowly until the valve tip reached the esophageal stump.

May 5, 2019 · The two prevailing techniques used to maintain intestinal continuity after surgical treatment of low rectal disease are end-to-end anastomosis (EEA) and side-to-end anastomosis.

The DST Series™ EEA™ OrVil™ device is an anvil assembly mounted on a 90 cm long PVC delivery tube and is secured to the tube with a suture.
