Does the food go on the inside of the endobarrier device with the digestive enzymes on the outside of the device? Does the endobarrier device modify metabolic pathways and prevent the mixing of food and digestive enzymes? Does the EndoBarrier stenting device migrate without safe and secure proximal fixation with T fasteners?

Is Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) entering into a new phase? Is the marriage of laparoscopic and interventional endoscopic techniques resulting in MIS procedures that are less invasive, safer, and achieve better outcomes for patients? What are the advances in endolumenal techniques, including Natural Orifice Translumenal Endolumenal Surgery NOTES?
