Summary

Evaluating predictive value of serum procalcitonin, C-Reactive Protein, drain IL-6 and TNF-alpha for anastomotic leakage in post-operative period.

Detailed description

To search for a biomarker, which might be able to predict rectal anastomotic leakage before its clinical presentation. Serum procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, and drain fluid culture, IL-6 and TNF-α levels were evaluated in 50 consecutive patients with rectal cancer who underwent low anterior resection with colorectal anastomosis.
