Diagnostic accuracy of CRP in the drainage fluid for early detection of anastomotic leakage in colorectal surgery – a pilot study

Anastomotic leak (AL) in colorectal surgery remains a source of concern, as it jeopardizes patient recovery and increases morbidity, particularly if not detected early. The CRP in the drain fluid has barely been investigated as a new predictive marker of AL that would improve treatment outcomes.

Anastomotic leak (AL) in colorectal surgery remains a source of concern, as it jeopardizes patient recovery and increases morbidity, particularly if not detected early. The CRP in the drain fluid has barely been investigated as a new predictive marker of AL that would improve treatment outcomes.
