Discover the FTRD® prOVE Cap: an essential tool for pre-procedure testing

Available in both colonic and gastroduodenal versions, these caps match the dimensions of their respective FTRD® caps, allowing you to test the viability of the FTRD® Set in advance. Whether you're preparing for a colonic or gastroduodenal procedure, the prOVE Cap provides a reliable way to simulate and assess the potential application, enhancing procedural success and in cases where the FTRD® System is not suitable for the intervention, it is saving valuable resources.

FTRD® shows low recurrence rates and high success in treating difficult colorectal lesions

Key findings
• Colorectal FTRD® demonstrates a low overall recurrence rate of 9.9% (n=9/91)
• Majority (66.6%) of recurrent or residual lesions (RRLs) were successfully treated endoscopically. All of them occurred in non-lifting adenoma.
• No late adverse events reported
• Close follow-up is crucial for optimal outcomes, especially in non-lifting adenomas and early carcinomas

Study details
• Retrospective analysis conducted at University Medical Center Freiburg from 2014 to 2021
• Included 91 patients with at least one endoscopic follow-up examination
• Indications for FTRD®: Non-lifting adenoma (n=65), subepithelial tumors (n=18), early carcinoma (n=8)
• Median follow-up period was 17 months (range 2-86)

New case study on the OTSG Xcavator® by Karna et al. demonstrates OTSG Xcavator® effective for removal of large necrotic debris in direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN)*

Key findings

OTSG® Xcavator could remove large pieces of necrosum of between 10-15cm in length
Complete resolution of necrosis was achieved in two sessions
No adverse events occurred

Case details

63-year-old man with history of semaglutide-induced necrotizing pancreatitis leading to an infected walled-off necrotic collection
DEN with traditional tools such as forceps, snares and suction were challenging due to the nature of the large, thick and pasty necrotic tissue adherent to the cyst wall
After the procedure, LAMS were removed and replaced with plastic double-pigtail stents across the cystogastrostomy

Discover the potential of the HemoPill® acute as a triage tool!

A UK study by D'Cunha Kamath et al. explores how the HemoPill® acute was used to reduce inpatient gastroscopies.

UK study on the HemoPill® acute shows that the bleeding-detection capsule could reduce the need for inpatient gastroscopies in patients with suspected non-variceal acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB)

Key findings
• 10 patients were given the HemoPill® acute. The HemoPill® acute showed a negative result in 6 and a positive result in 4 patients
• Adverse events occcurred in 0 cases and 90-day mortality was 0%
• HemoPill® as a triage tool led to a reduction of inpatient gastroscopies
• Patient with suspected non-variceal AUGIB and negative HemoPill® results could be safely managed as outpatients

Study details
• All patients included had been admitted to hospital with a suspected UGI bleed. The median Glasgow Blatchford Score was 9 and the median Rockall Score 4
• No pre-procedure fasting was required
• All patients with negative capsule results were managed as outpatients and underwent urgent outpatient gastroscopy
• All patients with positive capsule results were managed as inpatients and underwent inpatient gastroscopy

FTRD® enabled R0 resection without complications of an isolated follicular lymphoma in the cecum

Key findings
• Isolated GI follicular lymphoma (GI-FL) in the cecum was referred for endoscopic treatment
• With FTRD®, R0 resection without complications was achieved. Final pathology revealed a 23x21x8mm grade 1-2 follicular lymphoma with negative margins
• Patient is clinically well in the six-month follow-up
• Authors conclude that FTRD® appears effective for small isolated colonic GI-FL

Case details
• 62-year-old woman with a sessile polyp (12mm submucosal lesion) in the cecum
• PET-CT without evidence of malignancy, bone marrow biopsy was normal without evidence of lymphoma, suggesting an isolated GI-FL
• 1-year follow-up is pending

FTRD® - a diagnostic and therapeutic option for T1 carcinoma

FTRD® is a minimally invasive alternative to surgical resection for T1 carcinomas. Through its high R0 resection rate, it offers high-quality pathological specimens for exact histologic risk stratification and can serve as a potentially curative treatment.

Find out more about the HemoPill® acute! 💊

Developed to help exclude or confirm bleeding in the oesophagus, stomach and small intestine, this telemetric capsule is easy to use for both patients and physician. It requires no preparation of the patient, is smaller than regular video capsules and the data is immediately available without the need for time-consuming evaluation. That way, physicians can quickly determine whether a patient has an acute GI bleeding and needs an urgent endoscopy – or whether there is no acute bleeding present and an endoscopy can instead be scheduled during regular working hours.
