Linda Y. Zhang et al. Gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) for the treatment of gastric sleeve stenosis: a feasibility and safety study

This study reports the results of a modified peroral endoscopic myotomy procedure to treat gastric sleeve stenosis in 13 patients. After a median of 6 months, clinical success was achieved in 10 patients (77 %) with significant improvement in the Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index score. This endoscopic approach could be a good option before considering surgical revision.
