Core Tip

Core Tip: Anastomotic leak (AL) frequently occurs as a complication following ileocolic resection. Early warning of its high-risk factors facilitates the adoption of effective, targeted strategies to mitigate the occurrence of AL and optimize surgical quality. The prevention of AL plays a crucial role in the postoperative management of Crohn's disease, contributing significantly to patient outcomes.
