A Feasibility Study to Evaluate Safety and Probable Benefit of the Eclipse XL1 System for Distraction Enterogenesis in Adult and Pediatric Patients With Short Bowel Syndrome

The surgeon verifies the intestinal diameter and selects the appropriate device diameter size. The device is introduced into the lumen of the intestine and advanced about 5-10cm. The surgeon uses 4-0 chromic sutures placed in the seromuscular layer to secure the XL1 Coil within the intestine. The surgeon places metal clips on proximal and distal sutures and in the mesentery adjacent to the XL1 Coil ends to mark the location for radiologic evaluation. The surgeon releases the XL1 Coil and closes the enterotomy.
