Laparoscopic revision of gastrogastric stricture with a transoral circular stapler

Manish Parikh et al. Surg Innov. 2007 Sep.

Abstract

Most anastomotic strictures can be effectively managed by endoscopic dilations. Patients with severe strictures refractory to balloon dilations may require surgical revision. Revision of a strictured anastomosis (open or laparoscopic) is often technically demanding because of the severity of adhesion formation and difficulty in correctly identifying the anatomy. We discuss a laparoscopic method of safely revising an anastomotic stricture with a circular stapler.
