May I ask what a stomaphx is? Thank you so much!

It's approved for revision of bipass patients who are regaining weight.  They go in through the mouth while you are sedated, no cutting through the skin.  The endoscopic device grabs the stomach or stoma from the inside, makes a fold and clamps it together with a polyethyline facet.  If you go up to the search bar on here and type in "stomaphyx" or "endoluminal proceedures" there are some articles. Hope that helps!
