Have used this on one occasion with good initial success in a complex case with Crohns disease and a small bowel stenosis in the outlet loop of a gastroenterostomy. The stent was placed via a gastrostomy giving good access to the gastric outlet loop. Unfortunately recurrent disease led to eventual bowel failure.

Very good Device. Extremly innovative and usefull.
I have used it in recurence benign stenosis in biliary system with very good results and any cases of retritment at more than 1 year of follow-up.
The delivery system is too rude and It need to be improve (15F)
