Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective is to evaluate if the application of TachoSil® on a colorectal anastomosis is feasible and safe.

The secondary objective is to establish and describe optimal application methods to be used for educational purposes in future trials.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

TachoSil®

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

TachoSil®

Intervention Type DRUG

Sterile, ready-to-use, absorbable sponge for intra-operative topical application. It consists of an equine collagen sponge coated with the fibrin glue components human fibrinogen and human thrombin.

Surgery was performed according to the hospitals' local standards. When the anastomosis was performed, all enrolled subjects had TachoSil® applied around the anastomotic line. TachoSil® was therefore an add-on therapy.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Has the patient given informed consent according to local requirements before any trial-related activities? A trial-related activity is any procedure that would not have been performed during the routine management of the subject.
* Is the subject 18 years of age or above?
* Is the subject scheduled for elective resection of the rectum?
* Is a colorectal anastomosis below the peritoneal reflexion planned?

For females of childbearing potential:

* Does the patient use an acceptable contraceptive method (contraceptive pills, injection of prolonged gestagen, subdermal implantation, hormonal vaginal devices, transdermal patches or intrauterine device (IUD))?
* Is the blood or urine pregnancy test negative?

* Did the subject receive any fibrin sealant/glue, excluding TachoSil® , during surgery?

Exclusion Criteria

* Is the subject scheduled for emergency resection of the rectum?
* Does the subject suffer from inflammatory bowel diseases?
* Does the subject have a history of hypersensitivity reactions after application of human fibrinogen, human thrombin and/or collagen of any origin?
* Has the subject participated in any other trial with an investigational medical product (IMP) or device within 30 days before inclusion in this trial?
* Does the subject participate or plan to participate in another clinical trial during the trial period?

For females of childbearing potential:

• Is the subject pregnant or breast feeding?
