Side-to-side Staple Line

Side-to-side staple line is a surgical closure and anastomosis technique that joins two adjacent segments of hollow tissue, often bowel, after resection. In a linear stapling procedure, the segments are positioned alongside one another, aligned, and compressed before the device places parallel rows of staples; the resulting opening forms a shared lumen, while the enterotomy is closed with additional staples or sutures. In cancer research and oncologic surgery, this approach supports gastrointestinal reconstruction after removal of diseased tissue and provides a standardized model for studying anastomotic healing, integrity, complications, and functional recovery.
