Core Tip	The optimal surgical treatment for slow transit constipation (STC) is controversial. Based on our study, caecorectal anastomosis is more suitable for STC without melanosis coli (MC). However, for STC with MC, ileosigmoidal anastomosis, with a lower postoperative recurrence rate, is a better choice.
