Endoscopic use of EpiFix—dehydrated Human Amnion/Chorion Membrane (dHACM) allograft in patients with Gastric Leak following Sleeve Gastrectomy

Leak following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is one of the most feared complications and its management can be difficult and frustrating for patients and physicians involved. Using multimodality approach and having variable options to plan management for patients presenting with leak following bar...

description Leak following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is one of the most feared complications and its management can be difficult and frustrating for patients and physicians involved. Using multimodality approach and having variable options to plan management for patients presenting with leak following bariatric surgery can be advantageous for physicians. The use of endoscopic injection of EpiFix—dehydrated Human Amnion/Chorion Membrane (dHACM) allograft can be a novel adjunct in facilitating healing of the leak site by iatrogenic introduction of tissue growth factors, cytokines and building connective tissue matrix.
