Core Tip	This study evaluated a novel total enteric flow diversion technique using a modified ileostomy tube with balloon inflated to 20 kPa in a pig model of colonic anastomotic leakage (AL). Compared with the control group, the diversion group showed complete prevention of AL, no peritonitis or abscesses, and mild mucosal injury without necrosis. This technique may offer an effective alternative to traditional stomas for AL prevention.
