Core Tip	Recently, many studies have reported that laparoscopic rectal surgery is becoming popular and exhibits favorable outcomes compared with open surgery. However, the anastomotic leakage (AL) rate after laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR) is yet about 10%, and AL remains a huge challenge despite many surgical and technological advances. Here we review the current literature published with respect to the risk factors for AL after laparoscopic LAR.
