Early detection of anastomotic leak saves lives. A recent study published in @JAMASurgery highlights a critical reality in colorectal surgery. Delayed diagnosis of anastomotic leak significantly increases failure to rescue (FTR), meaning mortality after a complication. The key message is clear. It is not just the complication, but also the timing of recognition that determines outcomes. Patients with delayed diagnosis, especially after the onset of sepsis, had: -Higher complication burden -Increased reoperation rates -Longer hospital stays -Significantly higher mortality As surgeons, this reinforces a fundamental responsibility. Vigilance in the postoperative period, early suspicion, and decisive intervention truly impact survival. Improving systems for early detection of anastomotic leak and escalation of care are powerful quality improvement strategies which could improve mortality associated with colon resection. #ColorectalSurgery #PatientSafety #QualityImprovement #Surgery #ClinicalExcellence #SurgicalOutcomes #EvidenceBasedMedicine @ASCRS_1 @AmCollSurgeons @oncodaily @SoyColoproctoMX


🚨Great news for children! 🚨 In 2012 we knew we could treat significant forearm fractures in children without surgery ovid.com/jnls/jbjsjourn… It's only taken another 14 years to demonstrate this in a RCT... crafft.digitrial.com/results Well done @MrDanPerry and team!
