endomina® system
Our Solution:
A Triangulation Platform
The endomina system is comprised of a triangulation platform (endomina platform) and suturing units (TAPES). It is the only technology that can be assembled on a flexible endoscope in the stomach, enabling physicians to successfully perform incisionless gastric procedures.
The Benefits: Enabling True Incisionless Surgery
Extending one’s reach through the endomina system, an endoscopist will be able to perform suturing like during a laparoscopy intervention, but through a natural body orifice: the mouth.
Currently, endoscopists are limited in their surgical possibilities; as traditional endoscopes have the therapeutic channels ‘locked’ in the endoscope axis, leaving the endoscopist single-handed. The endomina system provides degrees of freedom comparable to the hands of a surgeon, enabling enhanced maneuverability.
The endomina system is the only triangulation technology that can be assembled inside the stomach for a greater working space and easy introduction of instruments into the esophagus. ⁷
The triangulation platform enables an endoscopist to position different instruments relative to one another.
Forceps can be used to grab and pull tissue inside endomina to make a plication.
Using the endomina platform, pairs of tissue plications can be approximated and stitched to one another.
