N2 - Increased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of colorectal anastomotic leakage. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induces MMPs and may influence anastomosis repair.
AB - Increased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of colorectal anastomotic leakage. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induces MMPs and may influence anastomosis repair.
