AB An  alternative  method  of  open  anastomosis  for  large  intestine  involves  the  method  of  triangulation  using  three  separate  staple  lines.  It  is  particularly  useful  in  colocolostomy  anastomoses  as  in  left-sided  colectomies  since  it  does  not  require  rotation  of  the  mesentery.  It  can  also  be  used  to  close  a  loop  colostomy  as  an  alternative  to  the  sutured  technique  in  Chapter  53.
