Abstract
Multiple LBRs appear to be associated with increased risk of AL and protective stomas with decreased risk. Since AL after OC cytoreduction significantly delays chemotherapy and negatively impacts survival, surgeons should strongly consider temporary diversion in selected patients (poor nutritional status, multiple LBRs, previous pelvic radiation, very low anterior resection, steroid use).
