Abstract:
Instruments that have been used in flexible endoscopy have always been confined to the working channel of the endoscope. We have therefore developed a device that allows transabdominal manipulation in the stomach under gastroscopic control with a device similar to a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). For the first clinical application of this device it was used in order to perform pseudocystogastrostomy in patients with pancreatic pseudocysts.
