The catheter was removed on the 3rd day postoperative if the volume collected was insignificant.\n\nPatients were followed-up on the ward and then in the outpatient's department at two weeks, and one month postoperative. Patients who were suspected to have AL underwent CT with rectal contrast to assess the integrity of the anastomosis. The primary outcome was the incidence of AL.
