    摘要: Transgastric abdominal access methods and apparatus are described herein. A shape-lockable elongate body can be advanced endoluminally in a flexible state into the stomach, where an opening is created through the stomach wall. The opening can be created endoluminally or by incising instruments placed through the abdominal wall. The elongate body can be transitioned to a rigid state prior to, during, or after advancement into the patient and is passed through the opening into the peritoneal cavity. A dilation balloon can be positioned simultaneously within the elongate body and within the tissue opening such that the elongate body can be advanced through the tissue opening. A flexible needle catheter can also be delivered through the elongate body or an endoscope to provide for insufflation prior to cutting or piercing through the stomach wall. Also, tissue closure devices and methods to close the opening created through the stomach wall.

    摘要: The attenuation or isolation of environmental parameters on a gastric lumen is described herein. Once tissue plications are formed into a gastric lumen or sleeve within a stomach, the newly formed lumen is subjected to a multitude of fluctuating stresses or pressure from food or fluids passing therethrough, from naturally-occurring contractions, and/or from changes in pH levels from caustic stomach acids and hormones. The tissue interface between these plications can be isolated from such environmental fluctuations, or the fluctuations can be attenuated, by a number of methods. One example is to place a gastric stent or sleeve within the newly formed lumen. Another example is to utilize multiple rows of anchors, clips, or sutures along the interface. Alternatively, bio-adhesives can be dispensed to buttress the tissue interface. In another variation, the tissue can be approximated in different configurations which effectively reduce or isolate the adhered tissue region.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods are provided for placing and advancing a diagnostic or therapeutic instrument in a hollow body organ of a tortuous or unsupported anatomy, comprising a handle, an overtube, a distal region having an atraumatic tip. The overtube may be removable from the handle, and have a longitudinal axis disposed at an angle relative to the handle. The overtube may be selectively stiffened to reduce distension of the organ caused by advancement of the diagnostic or therapeutic instrument. The distal region permits passive steering of the overtube caused by deflection of the diagnostic or therapeutic instrument while the atraumatic tip prevents the wall of the organ from becoming caught or pinched during manipulation of the diagnostic or therapeutic instrument.

    摘要: Methods for percutaneous hernia repair may include inserting a needle end of an anchor tool through a first tissue edge on a first side of a hernia defect opening. A first anchor is deployed with a first suture attached to the first anchor and running back through or along the anchor tool and outside of the patient's body. The needle end of the anchor tool is withdrawn from the first tissue edge. The first suture is separated from the anchor tool. The needle end of an anchor tool is inserted through a second tissue edge and a second anchor is deployed, with a second suture attached to the second anchor and running back through or along the anchor tool and outside of the patient's body. The sutures are tensioned and cinched or knotted.
