| Core Tip |
Yu the Great did not conquer water by building higher walls; he tamed it by carving new paths. Colonic anastomotic leakage prevention must likewise redirect, not exclude, intestinal flow. Despite promising results from devices that practice Yu’s diversion concept - including the C-seal, SafeHeal Colovac+, the biodegradable diverting stent, and water-inflatable balloons - accelerating breakthroughs in non-stoma strategies remains crucial to transforming anastomotic leakage management. |
