stentfix OTSC® System

Product catalog summary

Overview
The stentfix OTSC® System is an innovative solution designed for the fixation of self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS) in the digestive tract. It is developed by Ovesco Endoscopy AG, a company specializing in flexible endoscopy and gastrointestinal disease treatment.

Design and Features

The clip design adapts to the gastrointestinal wall, allowing for both proximal and distal fixation.
A dedicated cap shape facilitates easy positioning and alignment with the stent opening for optimal capture of stent mesh and tissue.
The compact design permits passage through stents with a diameter of 18 mm or more.

Application Procedures

Proximal Fixation: Align the clip tooth rows parallel to the stent opening to ensure even capture of tissue and stent mesh. Tissue mobilization is achieved through suction.
Distal Fixation: Similar alignment is required, with tissue mobilization achieved by grasping below the stent meshes.

Clinical and Demonstration Examples

Proximal fixation has been clinically exemplified by Dr. Massimo Conio at Sanremo Hospital, Italy.
Distal fixation has been demonstrated on an ex-vivo model.

Company Information
Ovesco Endoscopy AG is based in Tuebingen, Germany, with a subsidiary in Cary, NC, USA. The company is known for its effective and efficient medical devices in the field of endoscopy.

stentfix OTSC® System The stentfix OTSC® System is the innovative solution for stent fixation in the digestive tract. It is a specially designed OTSC® System and labeled for the fixation of self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS). The round design of the stentfix OTSC® clip adapts to the gastrointestinal anatomy. Due to the modified cap shape, stentfix OTSC® can easily be aligned to the stent opening for optimal stent mesh and tissue capture by the clip. The compact design of the stentfix OTSC® System also allows the passage through a stent (from Ø 18 mm), therefore, fixation is possible either...
