Brief Summary:
Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy worldwide and the second most common in the US. It is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide, with 1.8 million new cases and 862,000 deaths per year. The majority of patients receive surgical treatment. Colorectal surgery is associated with a high risk of morbidity and mortality in comparison to other general surgery subspecialties. This study aims to further assess the safety and effectiveness of the Colovac Anastomosis Protection Device, a temporary intraluminal bypass device, on a larger scale.
Detailed Description:
The Colovac Anastomosis Protection Device is intended for use in patients requiring low anterior rectal anastomoses to limit stoma creation to only those patients requiring more time for anastomosis healing when the device is removed, allowing patients with a healed anastomosis to avoid stoma creation. To reduce the risk of life-threatening complications, Colovac provides an alternative to stoma creation which prevents stoma related risks, including permanent stoma.
