Imagine the surgeon doing liposuction, shaking the fat to break it down, and injecting it via an endoscope to close a fistula. This works, and the concept is known as autologous nano-fat transplantation. This case presented by Dr Rushil Solanki at #UEGWeek shows how this is used to close a refractory fistula in a 24 year old lady with Crohn’s disease. By injecting adipose-derived stromal cells, we can now promote tissue regeneration rather than simply closing defects. Say hello to the era of regenerative endoscopy 👏🌟 #ESGEatUEGWeek

Robotic colonoscopy in action 🔦🤖🕹️ This first-in-human study presented today by Marcin Romanczyk at #UEGWeek showcases the Triton system, which uses a remotely controlled colonoscope and overtube incorporating dual dynamic rigidisation technology. By selectively stiffening flexible segments, it maintains scope configuration, minimises looping and enables precise tip deflection and rotation. This potentially improves navigation, stability and endoscopist ergonomics. His proof of concept study included 50 patients across two phases. Caecal intubation was achieved in 100%, without repositioning, abdominal pressure or conversion to conventional colonoscopy. Median caecal intubation time was 13 minutes. Adenoma detection rate was 54.2%, with successful resection of all 77 polyps. No adverse events occurred during 14-day follow-up. This causes far less physical and mental load for the endoscopist, and in is view, is way better than conventional colonoscopy. Could we be seeing a glimpse of the future of colonoscopy?

An alternative for upper GI endoscopy showcased at #UEGWeek 🆕🚀 The OMOM robotic system involves swallowing a pill sized capsule endoscope for examination of the upper GI tract and small bowel. The capsule is navigated with an external magnet, which is now AI-assisted for autonomous navigation, although manual override is also possible. The technology enables sedation-free endoscopy, but limitations include the inability to biopsy, cost and real estate needed to house the unit. Would you welcome this as a potential patient?
