The influence of circular stapler size on these outcomes is controversial. This meta-analysis evaluates the impact of stapler diameter on anastomotic morbidity following low colorectal anastomosis.</p><p><strong>Evidence acquisition: </strong>A systematic search of PubMed, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Central Register was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Comparative studies that reported outcomes based on circular stapler size were included. Primary endpoints were anastomotic leak, stricture, bleeding, and overall anastomotic morbidity. Secondary outcomes included overall morbidity, major complications, reoperation, readmission, and operative time. Odds ratios (ORs) and standardized mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. The ROBINS-I and GRADE tools were used to assess the risk of bias and quality of evidence.</p><p><strong>Evidence synthesis: </strong>Seven studies comprising 2214 patients (small stapler size (<30 mm): N.=859, large stapler size (≥30 mm): N.=1355) were included. Use of larger staplers was associated with a significantly lower incidence of anastomotic stricture (OR=2.31, 95% CI: 1.48-3.60, P=0.0002), with low heterogeneity (I²=5%). No significant differences were observed in anastomotic leak, bleeding, or overall anastomotic morbidity. Secondary outcomes, including overall and major morbidity, readmission, reoperation, and operative duration, also showed no significant differences between stapler sizes.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Larger circular staplers are associated with a reduced risk of anastomotic stricture following low colorectal anastomosis, without increasing other postoperative complications. These findings support the consideration of larger stapler diameters when anatomically feasible. Further high-quality prospective studies are warranted to validate these results and guide surgical decision-making.</p>","PeriodicalId":29847,"journal":{"name":"Minerva Surgery","volume":"81 1","pages":"49-58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147391440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early recognition and management are essential to prevent secondary spinal cord injuries and optimize patient outcomes. This review examines current assessment and treatment strategies for cervical spine fractures in the emergency department. Clinical decision rules such as the Canadian C-Spine Rule and the National Emergency X-Radiography Utilization Study (NEXUS) aid in determining the need for imaging, while computed tomography remains the gold standard for diagnosis. Traditional immobilization techniques, including manual inline spinal immobilization and cervical collars, are widely used, though recent evidence challenges their effectiveness in reducing neurological deterioration. Management approaches vary depending on the severity and stability of the fracture, with stable injuries often treated conservatively and unstable fractures requiring surgical intervention. New evidence suggests that a more individualized approach to immobilization and management may be beneficial, balancing patient comfort and clinical outcomes. Adherence to established trauma protocols remains critical in ensuring timely intervention and reducing complications. Further research is necessary to refine immobilization practices and develop more targeted treatment strategies to improve long-term outcomes for patients with cervical spine fractures.</p>","PeriodicalId":29847,"journal":{"name":"Minerva Surgery","volume":"80 6","pages":"479-484"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146100643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
