Andrew C. Storm et al. Long-term successful closure of a percutaneous intragastric
trocar tract with crossing full-thickness sutures in a porcine model
This paper reports on the feasibility and safety of the crossing full-thickness suture
method for trocar tract closure in five pigs. This method could be useful when performing
complex endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissec„tion, and novel
techniques such as full-thickness resection.
