RNY Revision StomaphyX Surgery

The StomaphyX device is a sterile, single-use device for use in endoluminal trans-oral tissue approximation and ligation in the GI tract. It is the first transoral, endoluminal fastener delivery system capable of delivering multiple fasteners with a single insertion giving physicians greater flexibility when evaluating surgical options. StomaphyX is the pioneering device for achieving tissue approximation in the GI tract and is built on EndoGastric Solutions' platform technology that is setting the standard for endoluminal surgery. Coupled with patented SerosaFuse fastener technology, StomaphyX enables serosa-to-serosa fusion, the strongest tissue bond, which is intended to improve the durability of the plication(s). Benefits: 

  • Less clinical risk - no need for incisions 
  • Enables serosal fusion for durable plications
  • Enables different procedures for different anatomies
  • Preserves future treatment options
  • Less pain than laparoscopy
  • Faster recovery than with open/laparoscopic procedures
 
Features:
  • Transoral insertion
  • Creates serosa-to-serosa plication
  • Delivers unlimited fasteners with single insertion
  • Adjustable and/or revisable transorally
  • No abdominal incisions
  • No internal incisions

This procedure is used by people who have had previous gastric bypass surgery and who are regaining weight and those who want an alternative to invasive weight loss surgery.

Over two hundred medical, dental and cosmetic procedures are available in various categories: Orthopedic procedures such as hip replacement, Birmingham hip resurfacing, artificial knee replacement, knee surgery, cosmetic procedures such as breast augmentation, face lift, rhinoplasty (nose surgery), liposuction, dental procedures such as bridges, implants, crowns, and procedures in categories such as cardiac, vascular, spinal, obesity, eye, LASIK, urology, general surgery, plastic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, weight-loss surgery, wellness and much more.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
