Surgical tip: Keep in mind that if you are performing a vascular anastomosis using a PTFE graft but are not using PTFE suture—opting instead for polypropylene suture—you will inevitably encounter temporary bleeding at the needle-entry points. This occurs because the needle used with polypropylene suture is thicker, creating a micro-perforation in the PTFE graft; this results in temporary bleeding, which can be resolved by applying brief, manual compression with gauze! @SWexner@pferrada1@juliomayol@BJSAcademy@CiruAndes2

🔴Anterior gastrostomy just at level of palpable bulge and proximal to pylorus
➡️Correlated with Hot Axios position on CT
🔴3/0 PDS used as stay sutures to improve visibility
➡️Just anterior leaf of gastrostomy
➡️To falciform using slip knot
🔴Despite manoeuvres described difficult to visualise Hot Axios stent
🔴Ligaclips applied to mucosa where stent could be palpated
🔴Intraoperative XR screening used to orientate the stent in relation to ligaclips
🔴Hook diathermy used to divide stomach mucosa to the right of the ligaclips to identify the stent which proved to be unsuccesful
🔴Real time IOUS utilised
➡️Critical step
➡️Key in identifying location of Hot Axios stent
🔴Once identified the stent which buried beneath the mucosa was removed with careful traction
🔴Bleeding encountered upon stent retrieval
➡️Controlled with pressure, judicious use of diathermy and placement of Veriset
🔴Anterior gastrostomy sutured close in 2 layers with 3/0 PDS
🔴Postoperatively patient started on IV PPI and initiated on oral fluids and diet in stepwise manner
