Multiple variables—preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative—can influence the risk of such leaks.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><strong><span>Objective: </span></strong><span>To identify and analyze potential risk factors contributing to anastomotic leakage in bowel surgeries.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><strong><span>Methods: </span></strong><span>This prospective study included 60 patients who underwent bowel resection with anastomosis at Gauhati Medical College and Hospital between March 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><strong><span>Results: </span></strong><span>Out of 60 patients, 15 (25%) developed an anastomotic leak, while 45 (75%) did not. Significant factors associated with leaks included male gender, lower preoperative serum albumin (mean: 2.9 g/dL, <em>p</em> = 0.01), emergency surgical procedures, intraoperative hypotension, and higher units of blood transfusion.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><strong><span>Conclusion: </span></strong><span>Key contributors to anastomotic leakage in this cohort were male gender, hypoalbuminemia (≤2.9 g/dL), intraoperative hypotension, and blood transfusion requirements. These variables should be critically assessed when planning bowel anastomosis to minimize complications.</span></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div>
