Abstract
Introduction : Anastomotic leakage continues to be one of the most serious complications following low anterior resections. Early diagnosis of a leak is difficult but critical to minimize morbidity and mortality. Aim : To evaluate changes in serum concentrations of 27 different cytokines...Keywords
