Detailed Description

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Signia™ circular stapler, for the creation of anastomoses assessed by the incidence of anastomotic leak within 30 days following use in subjects undergoing left sided colon, sigmoid, or rectal resections. The secondary objectives of this study are to assess safety and performance outcomes within 90 days following the use of the Signia™ circular stapler in subjects undergoing left sided colon, sigmoid, or rectal resections.
