Core Tip |
Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) represents a type of bariatric surgery, whose postoperative complications include anastomotic leaks and strictures. Endoscopic treatment may encompass stenting, which may be technically challenging in angulated and tortuous SG anatomies. Furthermore, the delivery systems of some stents used in this indication are larger and less flexible. These aspects may result in recurrent kinking of the delivery system of the stent preventing its correct progression in the altered gastric cavity. Therefore, the adoption of a modified technique of deployment of stents using the overtube developed for balloon-assisted enteroscopy may represent an effective option to overcome those technical difficulties. |
