- Intestinal injury (especially in strong adhesions → careful extensive adhesiolysis)
- Undetected injury of bowel sections with feces leaking into the free abdominal cavity and subsequent peritonitis
- Tension on the anastomosis (→ extensive adhesiolysis to mobilize the ends of both limbs)
- Bleeding (→ cautious surgery avoiding bleeding; experienced surgeon)
- Injury of adjacent organs (bladder, ureter, spermatic duct) when dissecting the distal limb
- If the blood supply at the ends of the limbs is poor, this mandates intraoperative resection of more bowel.
