Summary

Endoscopic hand-suturing (EHS) has emerged as a promising modality in gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopic procedures. The available reports regarding its effectiveness in clinical practice are limited due to the relatively recent expansion of this method. This study aims to describe the single-center experience of EHS and its outcomes.

Detailed description

Endoscopic hand-suturing (EHS) has emerged as a promising modality in gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopic procedures. The available reports regarding its effectiveness in clinical practice are limited due to the relatively recent expansion of this method. This study aims to describe the single-center experience of EHS and its outcomes. The retrospective single-center study included individuals that underwent advanced endoscopic procedures in upper and lower GI tract followed by EHS. Defined features (suturing time, suturing speed) and outcomes (postprocedural bleeding, abdominal pain) were assessed. Thirty-one patients were included in the analysis.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Endoscopic Hand Suturing	Endoscopic Hand Suturing is a technique of the wound closure after advanced endoscopic third-space resections I the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. In this technique, the needle is held on the opposite side from the tip with the needle holder. The needle is pierced perpendicularly into the tissue at the side of the wound with an appropriate margin, then driven through the tissue with rotation and grasped at the bottom of the defect. The same steps are repeated from the middle of the wound to create a symmetrical structure.
