Gastric wall healing after NOTES procedures: closure with endoscopic clips provides superior histological outcome compared with threaded tags closure.
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy(2010)
摘要
Closure of the transgastric access to the peritoneal cavity is a critical step in natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES).To perform a direct comparison of the histological healing post clips and threaded tags (T-tags) closure after transgastric NOTES procedures.
Twelve survival porcine experiments. After standardized endoscopic gastric wall puncture, balloon-dilation, and transgastric peritoneoscopy, closure of the gastric wall was performed with either clips or T-tags. Necropsy at 14 days was performed for histological evaluation of 2-mm interval transversal cross sections of the gastrotomy site.Histological healing of the gastric wall opening.Endoscopic closure of the gastrotomy was successfully achieved in all 12 animals, followed by an uneventful 2-week clinical follow-up. Transmural healing was seen in 3 (75%) animals after clip closure compared with only 1 (12.5%) in the group with T-tag closure (P = .06). Gastric wall muscular bridging was observed in 4 (100%) animals with clip closure compared with only 1 (12.5%) in the group with T-tag closure (P = .01).Animal model with short-term follow-up.Endoscopic clip closure results in a layer-to-layer transmural healing of the gastric wall. In contrast, T-tag gastric wall plication impairs gastric layer bridging. These findings might guide the future design of new endoscopic devices and techniques for gastrotomy closure after NOTES procedures.
