Rate of defunctioning stomas should be<br />

reduced due to effect on overall costs,<br />

especially in patients with low leakage<br />

rates. Patients (without stoma) with<br />

anastomotic leakage need significantly<br />

longer hospital stay (45.3 vs 17.5 <strong>and</strong> 18<br />

days for no stoma <strong>and</strong> stoma). Costs for<br />

LAR without stoma/no leakage, with<br />

stoma, <strong>and</strong> with leakage were €8400,<br />

€13,985 <strong>and</strong> €42,450 ($A15,549,<br />

$A25,888 <strong>and</strong> $A78,580). ICER for with<br />

stoma is €158,705 ($A293,780) <strong>and</strong><br />

€60,915 ($A112,760)/leakage avoided<br />
