Article Synopsis
- Continuous advancements in flexible gastrointestinal endoscopy provide new alternatives to traditional colonic anastomosis, which is the surgical connection of two segments of the colon.
- This study tested the safety and effectiveness of a new device called the "bow-tie" in performing end-to-end colonic anastomosis in eight healthy pigs, achieving a 100% success rate.
- While all pigs survived without major complications, there were two cases of stenosis and one case that required further intervention, indicating the need for larger studies to confirm the results.
