The gastroduodenal FTRD Set is a novel tool for diagnostic and therapeutic full-thickness (or deep wall resection, especially in the stomach) resection via flexible endoscopy in the stomach and duodenum • technology is based on the well-established OTSC System • enabling the endoscopist to resect all layers of suitable lesions including the serosa • the transection of the tissue happens only after the tissue has been closed completely • bowel lumen and abdominal cavity won't get into contact • It consists of the following five instruments, all single-use:• gastroduodenal FTRD (application cap with preloaded clip (special design for use in duodenum), integrated HF snare, endoscope sleeve, hand wheel and thread retriever • for colonoscopes)• FTRD Marking Probe (HF coagulation probe marking of the target lesion in preparation of FTRD use for detection and complete resection of the right tissue)• FTRD Grasper (specially designed grasping forceps proper grip on the target tissue precise retrieval of the sample into the application cap of the FTRD)• Insertion balloon (used to facilitate the insertion of the gastroduodenal FTRD through the mouth in the upper GI tract consists of a balloon, radiopaque markers, a catheter, a three-way handle and a yellow marker)• Guide wire (provided as insertion aid for the gastroduodenal FTRD to facilitate the insertion of the device into the upper GI-tract used in conjunction with an insertion balloon)
A flexible, hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to be introduced through the working channel of an endoscope to grasp tissue (typically atraumatically), or additionally foreign bodies. It has proximal controls (e.g., scissors-like handles), a flexible long slender shaft, and distal grasping jaws; it is not an electrosurgical device and is not dedicated to biopsy. This is a single-use device.
