The circular stapler (10) includes a handle assembly, an elongate body (30), a cartridge assembly (110), a trocar (700), and a light source (1710). The elongate body (30) extends from the handle assembly (20) and defines a longitudinal axis. The cartridge assembly (110) is disposed adjacent a distal end of the elongate body (30) and includes a pusher assembly (530). The pusher assembly (530) is movable to cause staples ("S") to be ejected from the cartridge assembly (110). The trocar (700) is disposed in mechanical cooperation with the cartridge assembly (110) and is longitudinally advanceable to puncture tissue. The light source (1710) is disposed in mechanical cooperation with the trocar (700), and is configured to project a light beam ("LB") distally of the trocar (700).1/28 CJ C'4 C`>； cQ LA'
