Core Tip |
Due to the specificity of Chinese food types, gastric phytobezoars are relatively common in China. Most gastric phytobezoars can be removed by chemical enzyme lysis and endoscopic fragmentation, but the treatment for large phytobezoars is limited. We developed a new, safe, and inexpensive lithotripsy procedure for this condition using tennis ball cord combined with endoscopy. This new technique reduces the dependence on endoscopic instruments, may be more widely applied in hospitals of all sizes. |
