Anastomotic leak after sigmoidectomy for diverticular disease can have devastating consequences. Preservation or sacrifice of the descending colon or rectal arterial supply may affect the anastomosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether preservation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) or superior rectal artery (SRA) was associated with a decreased anastomotic leak rate.
