Cook endoscopy was notified of four (4) events that occurred with the cook huibregtse needle knife papillotome.Please see below for relevant excerpts of this article."refractory esophageal strictures are rare conditions in pediatrics, and are often due to anastomotic, congenital, or caustic strictures.Although not as widely used, endoscopic electrocautery incisional therapy (eit) [abnormal use of cook huibregtse needle knife papillotome] has been reported as an alternative treatment for refractory strictures in a small number of adult series.The aim of the study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of eit in a pediatric population with refractory esophageal strictures.Our eit technique involves the use of a needle knife to make incisions into a stricture at its most dense points.We use the huibregtse needle knife papillotome (cook medical, winston-salem, nc) to perform eit.There were.4 maes [minor adverse events].All minor events were small contained leaks [fluid did not leak from the pleural space] that required no intervention; patients were discharged home within 24 hours of the procedure." it was not published in the article if a section of the device remained inside the patient¿s body.The patient did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.It is unknown if the patient experienced any adverse effects due to this occurrence, but no adverse effects were reported in the published case report.
