Secured lumen-apposing fully covered metallic stents for stenoses in post-bariatric surgery patients

Obesity Surgery May 08, 2019

Simsek C, et al. - Researchers examined the feasibility and safety of performing endoscopic suture placement to lumen-apposing metallic stents (LAMS) for reducing the migration of the stent.

Suturing LAMS allowed for prolonged stent dwell times and was identified to be a feasible technique. However, a high level of expertise plus additional procedure time is requisite.
