Official Title: Early Postoperative Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs and Anastomotic Leakage for Rectal Cancer

Brief Summary:

Conflicting reports of the association between early postoperative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) administration and anastomotic leak (AL) after rectal surgery have continued.
The definition of AL and the exposure of NSAIDs differ from each other among studies, which may result in the different conclusions.

The aim of this retrospective study was to clarify the effect of NSAIDs on anastomotic leak from new angels.
