Enhanced Endoscopic Internal Drainage of Gastric Abscess Through Additively Manufactured Stents
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Postoperative gastric leaks are often treated with off‐label biliary double‐pigtail stents, yet conventional extruded designs are not optimized for leak anatomy, can migrate, and may limit abscess evacuation. PETALS is introduced to optimize transmural drainage geometry and enable patient‐specific 3D‐printable stents.
