Demehri F, Utter B, Freeman J, Fukatsu Y, Luntz J, Brei D, et al.
J Pediatr Surg . 2015 Nov; 51(1):101-6. PMID: 26552895
Purpose: Previous methods of distraction enterogenesis have relied upon blind-ending intestinal segments or transmural device fixation, requiring multiple operations and potential bowel injury. We hypothesized that using a novel attachment...

Demehri F, Freeman J, Fukatsu Y, Luntz J, Teitelbaum D
Surgery . 2015 May; 158(3):802-11. PMID: 26008962
Background: Distraction enterogenesis may provide a novel therapy for short bowel syndrome. Previously described methods have relied on isolated intestinal segments or transmural fixation because of ineffective endoluminal attachment. We...

Ralls M, Sueyoshi R, Herman R, Utter B, Czarnocki I, Si N, et al.
Pediatr Surg Int . 2012 Dec; 29(1):33-9. PMID: 23229341
Background: Distraction-induced enterogenesis, whereby the intestine lengthens with application of linear forces, is an emerging area which may provide a unique treatment for short bowel syndrome. With an increase in...

Ralls M, Sueyoshi R, Herman R, Utter B, Czarnocki I, Luntz J, et al.
Pediatr Surg Int . 2012 Oct; 29(2):151-6. PMID: 23108982
Background: Distraction-induced intestinal growth may be a novel treatment for short bowel syndrome. Longitudinal, distractive tension created by the application of force creates a significant challenge: to produce adequate force,...

Miyasaka E, Okawada M, Herman R, Utter B, Luntz J, Brei D, et al.
J Surg Res . 2011 May; 170(2):179-84. PMID: 21571307
Background: We tested the coupling portion of a prototype intraluminal distraction enterogenesis device to allow flow-through of simulated enteric contents (SEC) in both pig and human jejunum. Materials And Methods:...

Miyasaka E, Okawada M, Utter B, Mustafa-Maria H, Luntz J, Brei D, et al.
J Surg Res . 2010 Jul; 163(2):169-75. PMID: 20605600
Background: Distraction enterogenesis is a novel method for increasing small bowel length by the application of linearly directed forces. However, the magnitude of distractive forces that human and animal small...

Luntz J, Brei D, Teitelbaum D, Spencer A
Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng . 2007 Mar; 6173:617309. PMID: 17369875
Short-bowel syndrome (SBS) is a rare, potentially lethal medical condition where the small intestine is far shorter than required for proper nutrient absorption. Current treatment, including nutritional, hormone-based, and surgical...

Spencer A, Sun X, El-Sawaf M, Haxhija E, Brei D, Luntz J, et al.
Surgery . 2006 Aug; 140(2):212-20. PMID: 16904972
Background: Recent work indicates that mechanical force induces small-bowel growth, although methods reported do not have direct clinical application. We report a clinically feasible technique of enterogenesis and describe intestinal...
