Prognostic value of preoperative anorectal manometry parameters for anastomotic leakage after sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer
Preoperative MRP is an independent predictor of early major AL after LAR. Elevated resting anal pressure may create functional outlet obstruction, increasing intraluminal pressure at the anastomotic site and compromising healing. Preoperative ARM could identify high-risk patients who may benefit from protective interventions.
