Primary anastomosis versus stoma following urgent sigmoidectomy for sigmoid volvulus: 58-year experience in a tertiary referral center
Primary anastomosis has some advantages in comparison to stoma in the restoration of intestinal continuity following urgent sigmoidectomy in SV. However, stoma is generally preferred in patients with bad health status, old age, and risky bowel. New prospective randomized clinical studies or matched analyses may help to clarify the optimal choice.
