Abstract
Anastomotic leakage (AL) and major complications after colorectal resection for deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) have a remarkable impact on patient outcomes. The aim of this study is to assess the predictive value of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), white blood cell count (WBCs) and the Dutch Leakage Score (DLS) as reliable markers in the early diagnosis of AL and major complications after laparoscopic colorectal resection for DIE.Keywords
