The OverStitch Sx System (Apollo Endosurgery Inc., Austin, Tx, Usa) is a new generation of endoscopic suturing device. It is inserted into an endoscope allowing the approximation of Luc Karsentys soft tissue by placement of sutures. It is as effective a suture system as a surgical system. The OverStitch Sx allows suturing in the upper and lower GI with a flexible single channel endoscope. Previously, the Overstich was only compatible with an Olympus dual channel endoscope.
Thus, a wide range of interventions are possible, including gastric endoplastic sleeve (ESG), RYGB revision, anastomotic fistula repair and / or sleeve revision. In each of these indications, the OverStitch (OverStitch) system has shown its effectiveness and safety.
The OverStitch Endoscopic Suture System allows the entire digestive wall to be sutured through a flexible endoscope. Thus, a wide range of interventions are possible, including gastric pocket repair after gastric bypass surgery, anastomotic fistula repair, endoscopic treatment of digestive perforation, and endoscopic sleeve surgery. In each of these indications, the OverStitch system has demonstrated its effectiveness and safety. But this technique is recent, especially in France. In addition, no data has yet been released regarding the new Overstitch Sx device compatible with all single channel endoscopes.
An observational study including patients in French centers that are experts in therapeutic endoscopy seems essential to us to better assess this new device and this new technique in practice
