Image of the leak-testing design with a simple interrupted anastomosis construct. Rochester-Carmalt forceps occlude the segment on both ends and 2 IV catheters are inserted into the intestinal lumen. The catheter on the left is attached to a syringe pump for infusion with 0.9% NaCl solution diluted with methylene blue. The catheter on the right side is attached to the pressure transducer.
