Nomogram Prediction of Anastomotic Leakage and Determination of an Effective Surgical Strategy for Reducing Anastomotic Leakage after Laparoscopic Rectal Cancer Surgery

<div>Risk-adjusted cumulative sum curve analysis for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. The cut-off points were at the 70th case and the 500th case. Each of the strategies has been implemented since its initial use throughout the duration of the study period. A: application of fibrin glue, B: use of reinforcing sutures, C: extended medial-to-lateral splenic flexure mobilization, and D: use of a transanal drainage tube.</div>
