APPLICATIONS & TECHNIQUES
Applications In Surgery And Gynecology Using The QUIK-STITCH
Reviewed By: James E.Carter, M.D., FACOG & Edward Felix, M.D., FACS

LIGATION - Cystic Duct

A blunt needle is used to isolate embedded structures such as the cystic duct. The needle is picked up to encircle the structure. The needle and suture are withdrawn into the QUIK-STITCH cartridge. The knot is formed and pushed into place.

APPROXIMATION - Uterine Bed after Myomectomy

Closure of the myoma bed can be easily accomplished after removal of the myoma. Interrupted sutures approximate the edges of the defect. (For deep intramural myomas, one or more layers of interrupted sutures are used to close the myoma bed.) QUIK-STITCH locking Roeder Knots provide secure closure.

FIXATION - Plication of Reinforcing Mesh

Migration of hernia mesh can be avoided by simple suture plication of the edges. A short straight needle easily passes through the mesh weave and tissue. Once formed, the locking Roeder knot is secure. It can be loosely fashioned to maintain the flat mesh profile.

Plication to Esophagus
and Wrapping Fundus
Partial Wrap Fundoplication
Fixation of Gastric Band
Nissen Fundoplication is facillitated with the 19mm needle Toupet Fundoplication is a straight forward application with the QUIK-STITCH. Complex anchoring of implants can be easily done with QUIK-STITCH.

Ligation & Transection of Adhesions

Ligation of Vessels For BSO

Closure of Vaginal Cuff after Laproscopic Hysterectomy
A QUIK-STITCH is placed distal and proximal adhesion is cut.
Ligation of utero-ovarian vessels is demonstrated. Two QUIK-STITCH ligatures are placed and the vessels then devided between the sutures. QUIK-STITCH is placed through the pubocervical and then the rectovagina fascia and these are approximated to close the vaginal cuff.

Figure Eight Closure-
Deep Bleeder
Tubal Ligation Ligation of Embedded Bleeder
The QUIK-STITCH is placed in a figure-of-eight fashion to close a deep bleeding vessel. QUIK-STITCH is applied around the tubal structure in two locations and the tube devided between them. Bleeder is looped while occlusion is maintained with grasper.
