Description
Laurent Monino and seven co-authors compare two ways to build a bypass in the stomach, tested in pigs. Their 2025 study uses an endoscope with ultrasound to join the stomach to the bowel. The join treats a blocked stomach outlet. A metal stent holds the new channel open, though stents can land in the wrong place.
One method feeds the stent over a guide wire; the other works wirelessly in a simpler way. Eleven joins were made in ten living pigs, then followed for twelve weeks. The wireless method scored far better on ease and needed fewer attempts. It also had fewer forced stent mishaps, though the gap was not firm. A rescue move, placing a second stent inside the first, mostly worked.
