OverStitch™  Endoscopic Suturing System (ESS)

A unique device that mimics the way physicians deploy sutures by hand. Full-thickness endoscopic suturing on a flexible platform, delivering surgical standard of care through the flexible endoscope. Single-patient use for maximum reliability and patient safety. Capable of deploying a running stitch as well as interrupted sutures with a single insertion of the endoscope.

We've Taken a "Hands-On" Approach to Endoscopic Suturing...

  • Unique design mimics curved needle, which allows for controlled depth of suture placement
  • Mounts quickly and easily on the Olympus 2T160 therapeutic endoscope and allows sutures to be deployed under direct visualization
  • Available in absorbable and non-absorbable suture materials:
    • 2-0 & 3-0 Polyglycolic Acid (PGA)
    • 2-0 & 3-0 Polypropylene (PP)
  • Single-handed operation allows physician to maintain system control
  • Capable of being reloaded without removing the scope, while maintaining visibility of the operative site
  • Unique cinch design provides secure closure without the need to tie surgical knots
