Creation of a Custom Endoluminal Vacuum-Assisted Device for Salvage of Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomotic Leak.

Endoluminal vacuum-assisted devices have become increasingly popular solutions for low-colorectal injuries and anastomotic defects in recent years. We present a case of a 23-year-old male who underwent salvage of an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) anastomotic leak with a customized endoluminal vacuum sponge and cavity marsupialization. This case highlights the easy-to-follow steps to create a customized endoluminal vacuum (endo-vac) sponge with readily available materials for the treatment of low colorectal anastomotic leaks.
