Use of the shape memory effect of a titanium nickelide spring in a suturing device for the formation of compression esophageal anastomoses.
A new method for the formation of a compression esophagointestinal anastomosis is proposed. The compression force in the new device for creation of compression circular anastomoses is created by means of a titanium nickelide spring with a "shape memory" effect. Experimental study showed good prospects of the new device and the advantages of the anastomosis compression suture formed by means of this device in comparison with manual ligature suturing.
