2023 Senior Fellows Program (2nd & 3rd Year) | August 2023-Hands On Demo: Enteral Stents

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses two topics: interrupted sutures and colonic stent placement. The speaker explains that interrupted sutures are not commonly used with the device being discussed, as it is primarily designed for continuous sutures. They then move on to a demonstration of colonic stent placement for a malignant stricture. The process involves threading a guide wire and deploying the stent using radio opaque markers. The speaker emphasizes the need for colorectal surgeons to be involved due to the risks of perforation. The video concludes with the presenters thanking the audience and offering further contact information.
