Schomisch S, Furlan J, Andrews J, Trunzo J, Ponsky J, Marks J
Surg Endosc . 2011 Jul; 25(12):3906-11. PMID: 21789648
Background: The advancement of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) into clinical practice is dependent on its safety, efficacy, and efficiency. Access is the obligatory first step in NOTES and...

Elmunzer B, Sonnenday C, Taylor J, Furlan J, Schomisch S, Scheiman J, et al.
Surg Endosc . 2011 Mar; 25(8):2725-30. PMID: 21359880
Background: Transgastric endoscopy may represent a viable platform for diagnostic and therapeutic pancreatic interventions with reduced morbidity. In a human cadaver model, we aimed to determine the feasibility of transgastric...

Elmunzer B, Pollack M, Trunzo J, Schomisch S, Wong R, Faulx A, et al.
Gastrointest Endosc . 2010 Jul; 72(3):611-4. PMID: 20630519
Background: Real-time visualization of submucosal arterial flow at the base of an ulcer might improve endoscopic hemostasis by permitting more accurate assessment of the artery, precise targeting of therapy, and...

Elmunzer B, Chak A, Taylor J, Trunzo J, Piraka C, Schomisch S, et al.
Surg Innov . 2010 May; 17(2):101-7. PMID: 20504785
Background: Access sites other than the anterior gastric wall may provide improved ergonomics for natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES). Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance significantly reduces, but does not eliminate,...

Trunzo J, Poulose B, McGee M, Nikfarjam M, Schomisch S, Onders R, et al.
Surg Endosc . 2010 Mar; 24(10):2485-91. PMID: 20333404
Background: Evaluation of a potential source for abdominal sepsis in a critically ill patient can be challenging. With flexible endoscopy readily available in this setting, we sought to evaluate the...

Williams C, Rosen M, Jin J, McGee M, Schomisch S, Ponsky J
Surg Innov . 2008 Nov; 15(4):307-11. PMID: 19036733
Abdominal fascial closure after midline laparotomy can be time-consuming and inaccurate and is a common time for needle-stick injuries. The SuturTek 360 degrees Fascial Closure Device (FCD) is designed to...

Elmunzer B, Schomisch S, Trunzo J, Poulose B, Delaney C, McGee M, et al.
Gastrointest Endosc . 2008 Jul; 69(1):108-14. PMID: 18635176
Background: Most natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) procedures have been performed through the anterior stomach wall, based on the established safety of PEG placement. This approach does not afford...

McGee M, Marks J, Onders R, Chak A, Rosen M, Williams C, et al.
Gastrointest Endosc . 2008 Apr; 68(2):310-8. PMID: 18407267
Background: Obtaining reliable closure of transvisceral defects currently limits natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES). PEG tubes are potential means of managing NOTES gastrotomies. Objective: To determine the efficacy of...

McGee M, Schomisch S, Marks J, Delaney C, Jin J, Williams C, et al.
Surgery . 2008 Feb; 143(3):318-28. PMID: 18291252
Background: Natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) allows access to the peritoneal cavity without skin incisions. Contamination of the peritoneal cavity by enteric contents may render NOTES more physiologically and...

McGee M, Marks J, Jin J, Williams C, Chak A, Schomisch S, et al.
J Gastrointest Surg . 2007 Oct; 12(1):38-45. PMID: 17957435
Obtaining endolumenal closure of hollow visceral defects may complement conventional, incision-based, surgical alternatives and benefit the experimental field of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES). Endoscopic tissue plicating devices (TPD)...
