Abstract
Two cases of laparoscopic restoration of intestinal continuity are pre sented. The procedures were technically straightforward and both patie nts did well. These cases add to a small but growing literature docume nting the technical feasibility of laparoscopic intestinal surgery. Th e potential risks and benefits of this minimally invasive technique ar e discussed.
