Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract harbors diverse microorganisms in the lumen. Epithelial cells segregate the luminal microorganisms from immune cells in the lamina propria by constructing chemical and physical barriers through the production of various factors to prevent excessive immune responses against microbes. Therefore, perturbations of epithelial integrity are linked to the development of gastrointestinal disorders. Several mesenchymal stromal cell populations, including fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, pericytes, and myocytes, contribute to the establishment and maintenance of epithelial homeostasis in the gut through regulation of the self-renewal, proliferation, and differentiation of intestinal stem cells. Recent studies have revealed alterations in the composition of intestinal mesenchymal stromal cells in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. A better understanding of the interplay between mesenchymal stromal cells and epithelial cells associated with intestinal health and diseases will facilitate identification of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for gastrointestinal disorders. This review summarizes the key findings obtained to date on the mechanisms by which functionally distinct mesenchymal stromal cells regulate epithelial integrity in intestinal health and diseases at different developmental stages.

Developing a mechanically matched decellularized spinal cord scaffold for the in situ matrix-based neural repair of spinal cord injury. Biomaterials 2021; 279:121192. [PMID: 34700225 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.121192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 10/15/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Tissue engineering is a promising strategy to repair spinal cord injury (SCI). However, a bioscaffold with mechanical properties that match those of the pathological spinal cord tissue and a pro-regenerative matrix that allows robust neurogenesis for overcoming post-SCI scar formation has yet to be developed. Here, we report that a mechanically enhanced decellularized spinal cord (DSC) scaffold with a thin poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) outer shell may fulfill the requirements for effective in situ neuroengineering after SCI. Using chemical extraction and electrospinning methods, we successfully constructed PLGA thin shell-ensheathed DSC scaffolds (PLGA-DSC scaffolds) in a way that removed major inhibitory components while preserving the permissive matrix. The DSCs exhibited good cytocompatibility with neural stem cells (NSCs) and significantly enhanced their differentiation toward neurons in vitro. Due to the mechanical reinforcement, the implanted PLGA-DSC scaffolds showed markedly increased resilience to infiltration by myofibroblasts and the deposition of dense collagen matrix, thereby creating a neurogenic niche favorable for the targeted migration, residence and neuronal differentiation of endogenous NSCs after SCI. Furthermore, PLGA-DSC presented a mild immunogenic property but prominent ability to polarize macrophages from the M1 phenotype to the M2 phenotype, leading to significant tissue regeneration and functional restoration after SCI. Taken together, the results demonstrate that the mechanically matched PLGA-DSC scaffolds show promise for effective tissue repair after SCI.

Abstract
The synthesis and secretion of components that constitute the extracellular matrix (ECM) by resident cell types occur at the earliest stages of embryonic development, and continue throughout life in both healthy and diseased physiological states. The ECM consists of a complex mixture of insoluble and soluble functional components that are arranged in a tissue-specific 3D ultrastructure, and it regulates numerous biological processes, including angiogenesis, innervation and stem cell differentiation. Owing to its composition and influence on embryonic development, as well as cellular and organ homeostasis, the ECM is an ideal therapeutic substrate for the repair of damaged or diseased tissues. Biologic scaffold materials that are composed of ECM have been used in various surgical and tissue-engineering applications. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract presents distinct challenges, such as diverse pH conditions and the requirement for motility and nutrient absorption. Despite these challenges, the use of homologous and heterologous ECM bioscaffolds for the focal or segmental reconstruction and regeneration of GI tissue has shown promise in early preclinical and clinical studies. This Review discusses the importance of tissue-specific ECM bioscaffolds and highlights the major advances that have been made in regenerative medicine strategies for the reconstruction of functional GI tissues.

Abstract
Allogeneic organ transplantation remains the ultimate solution for end-stage organ failure. Yet, the clinical application is limited by the shortage of donor organs and the need for lifelong immunosuppression, highlighting the importance of developing effective therapeutic strategies. In the field of regenerative medicine, various regenerative technologies have lately been developed using various biomaterials to address these limitations. Decellularized scaffolds, derived mainly from various non-autologous organs, have been proved a regenerative capability in vivo and in vitro and become an emerging treatment approach. However, this regenerative capability varies between scaffolds as a result of the diversity of anatomical structure and cellular composition of organs used for decellularization. Herein, recent advances in scaffolds based on organ regeneration in vivo and in vitro are highlighted along with aspects where further investigations and analyses are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Tissue engineering may provide new operative tools for colorectal surgery in elective indications. The aim of this study was to define a suitable bioscaffold for colorectal tissue engineering. METHODS We compared 2 bioscaffolds with in vitro and in vivo experiments: porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) versus chitosan hydrogel matrix. We assessed nontoxicity of the scaffold in vitro by using human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSC). In vivo, a 1 × 2-cm colonic wall defect was created in 16 rabbits. Animals were divided randomly into 2 groups according to the graft used, SIS or chitosan hydrogel. Graft area was explanted at 4 and 8 weeks. The end points of in vivo experiments were technical feasibility, behavior of the scaffold, in situ putative inflammatory effect, and the quality of tissue regeneration, in particular smooth muscle layer regeneration. RESULTS In vitro, hADSC attachment and proliferation occurred on both scaffolds without a substantial difference. After proliferation, hADSCs kept their mesenchymal stem cell characteristics. In vivo, one animal died in each group. Eight weeks after implantation, the chitosan scaffold allowed better wound healing compared with the SIS scaffold, with more effective control of inflammatory activity and an integral regeneration of the colonic wall including the smooth muscle cell layer. CONCLUSION The outcomes of in vitro experiments did not differ greatly between the 2 groups. Macroscopic and histologic findings, however, revealed better wound healing of the colonic wall in the chitosan group suggesting that the chitosan hydrogel could serve as a better scaffold for colorectal tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The growing prevalence of endoscopic surgery in recent years has led to the minimization of postoperative scarring. However, this procedure does not allow for the regeneration of the resected digestive tract, which compromises the postoperative maintenance of digestive function. In this preliminary study, we developed an artificial gastric wall (AGW) using bioabsorbable polymer (BAP), and evaluated the ability of this BAP patch to repair and regenerate a widely defective gastric wall in an animal model. METHODS Pigs were laparotomized under general anesthesia. An 8 × 8-cm, round portion of the anterior gastric wall was excised and replaced by an AGW. The AGW was composed of a copolymer comprising 50% lactic acid and 50% caprolactone. The animals were relaparotomized 4, 8, or 12 weeks after implantation, after which they underwent resection of the entire stomach for gross and histologic evaluation of the graft sites. RESULTS All recipient pigs survived until killing. By 4-8 weeks, the graft site revealed progressively fewer mucosal defect after each day. Moreover, the grafted area was indistinguishable from the native stomach 12 weeks after AGW implantation. The structures of the regenerated mucous membrane and muscle layers were identical to those of the native stomach. Furthermore, proton pumps were found in the regenerated tissue. CONCLUSION The BAP sheets helped to restore extensive gastric defects without causing any deformation. The use of BAP sheets may become a new therapeutic method that prevents alterations of gastric volume after extensive gastrectomy for stomach cancer and other diseases.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of the small intestinal submucosa (SIS) when the longitudinal staples during Bianchi's procedure are replaced with SIS graft. METHODS The mesentery of the bowel was separated based on the bifurcated vessels in five beagles. A 2×7-cm longitudinal half of the bowel was excised and the defect was repaired using SIS with similar blood supply in Bianchi's operation. Six months later, intestinal motility in the SIS-grafted area was recorded. Tissue preparations were obtained from the reorganized area. An organ bath technique with electrical field stimulation was applied. Both the native small intestine and grafted area were morphologically investigated using immunohistochemistry. MAIN RESULTS All dogs survived and thrived with no anastomotic leakage. Isoperistaltic migrating contractility during fasting was observed through the grafted segment including the reorganized area. The SIS-reorganized tissue contracted in response to an acetylcholine agonist and electrical field stimulation. The mucosa was covered with normal epithelium. Reorganization of neural and smooth muscle cells was observed. CONCLUSIONS SIS has the potential for use as a scaffold that promotes the formation of a physical and physiological neointestine. Our present proposal approaches a novel surgical treatment in patients with short bowel syndrome.

Abstract
KEY POINTS An in vitro approach to study gastric development is primary mouse-derived epithelium cultured as three-dimensional spheroids known as organoids. We have devised two unique gastric fundic-derived organoid cultures: model 1 for the expansion of gastric fundic stem cells, and model 2 for the maintenance of mature cell lineages. Organoids maintained in co-culture with immortalized stomach mesenchymal cells express robust numbers of surface pit, mucous neck, chief, endocrine and parietal cells. Histamine induced a significant decrease in intraluminal pH that was reversed by omeprazole in fundic organoids and indicated functional activity and regulation of parietal cells. Localized photodamage resulted in rapid cell exfoliation coincident with migration of neighbouring cells to the damaged area, sustaining epithelial continuity. We report the use of these models for studies of epithelial cell biology and cell damage and repair. ABSTRACT Studies of gastric function and disease have been limited by the lack of extended primary cultures of the epithelium. An in vitro approach to study gastric development is primary mouse-derived antral epithelium cultured as three-dimensional spheroids known as organoids. There have been no reports on the use of organoids for gastric function. We have devised two unique gastric fundic-derived organoid cultures: model 1 for the expansion of gastric fundic stem cells, and model 2 for the maintenance of mature cell lineages. Both models were generated from single glands dissociated from whole fundic tissue and grown in basement membrane matrix (Matrigel) and organoid growth medium. Model 1 enriches for a stem cell-like niche via simple passage of the organoids. Maintained in Matrigel and growth medium, proliferating organoids expressed high levels of stem cell markers CD44 and Lgr5. Model 2 is a system of gastric organoids co-cultured with immortalized stomach mesenchymal cells (ISMCs). Organoids maintained in co-culture with ISMCs express robust numbers of surface pit, mucous neck, chief, endocrine and parietal cells. Histamine induced a significant decrease in intraluminal pH that was reversed by omeprazole in fundic organoids and indicated functional activity and regulation of parietal cells. Localized photodamage resulted in rapid cell exfoliation coincident with migration of neighbouring cells to the damaged area, sustaining epithelial continuity. Thus, we report the use of these models for studies of epithelial cell biology and cell damage and repair.

Abstract
Background: Complex abdominal defects are difficult problems encountered by surgeons in multiple specialties. Although current evidence supports the primary repair of these defects with mesh reinforcement, it is unclear which mesh is superior for any given clinical scenario. The purpose of this review was to explore the characteristics of and clinical relevance behind bioprosthetic tissue matrices in an effort to better clarify their role in abdominal wall reconstruction. Methods: We reviewed the peer-reviewed literature on the use of bioprosthetic mesh in human subjects. Basic science articles and large retrospective and prospective reviews were included in author’s analysis. The clinical performance and characteristics of 13 bioprosthetic tissue matrices were evaluated. Results: The majority of the products evaluated perform well in contaminated fields, where the risk of wound-healing difficulties is high. Clinical outcomes, which included infection, reherniation, and bulge formation, were variable, and the majority of the studies had a mean follow-up of less than 24 months. Conclusions: Although bioprosthetic matrix has a multitude of indications within the growing field of abdominal wall reconstruction, the functionality, regenerative capacity, and long-term fate of these products have yet to be fully established. Furthermore, the clinical performance, indications, and contraindications for each type of matrix need to be fully evaluated in long-term outcome studies.

Abstract
Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is a biodegradable collagen-rich matrix containing functional growth factors. We have previously reported encouraging outcomes for regeneration of an artificial defect in the rodent stomach using SIS grafts, although the muscular layer was diminutive. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of SIS in conjunction with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for regeneration of the gastrointestinal tract. MSCs from the bone marrow of green fluorescence protein (GFP)-transgenic Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were isolated and expanded ex vivo. A 1 cm whole-layer stomach defect in SD rats was repaired using: a plain SIS graft without MSCs (group 1, control); a plain SIS graft followed by intravenous injection of MSCs (group 2); a SIS graft co-cultured with MSCs (group 3); or a SIS sandwich containing an MSC sheet (group 4). Pharmacological, electrophysiological and immunohistochemical examination was performed to evaluate the regenerated stomach tissue. Contractility in response to a muscarinic receptor agonist, a nitric oxide precursor or electrical field stimulation was observed in all groups. SIS grafts seeded with MSCs (groups 3 and 4) appeared to support improved regeneration compared with SIS grafts not seeded with MSCs (groups 1 and 2), by enabling the development of well-structured smooth muscle layers of significantly increased length. GFP expression was detected in the regenerated interstitial tissue, with fibroblast-like cells in the seeded-SIS groups. SIS potently induced pharmacological and electrophysiological regeneration of the digestive tract, and seeded MSCs provided an enriched environment that supported tissue regeneration by the SIS graft in the engineered stomach.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acellular porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) has been successfully used for esophagoplasty in dogs. However, this has not led to complete epithelialization and muscular regeneration. We undertook the present study to assess the effect of tissue-engineered esophagus generated by seeding bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) onto an SIS scaffold (BMSCs-SIS) in a canine model. METHODS We cultured, passaged, and measured autologous BMSCs and myoblasts with cell proliferation and immunohistochemical assays. We labeled the third passage of BMSCs with PKH-26, a fluorescent dye, before seeded it onto the SIS. We resected canine cervical esophagus to generate a defect 5 cm in length and 50% in circumference, which we repaired with BMSCs-SIS or SIS alone. RESULTS Four weeks later, barium esophagram demonstrated that esophageal lumen surface of the patch graft was smoother in the BMSCs-SIS group compared with the SIS group. Histological examination suggested a strong similarity between BMSCs and esophageal myoblasts in terms of morphology and function. Although both BMSCs-SIS and SIS repaired the esophageal defects, we noted complete re-epithelialization with almost no inflammation only in the former group. By 12 wk after the surgery, we observed long bundles of skeletal muscles only in the BMSCs-SIS group, where the microvessel density was also much greater. CONCLUSIONS Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on an SIS scaffold can promote re-epithelialization, revascularization, and muscular regeneration. This approach may provide an attractive option for esophageal regeneration.

Abstract
The use of biological scaffold materials for wound healing and tissue remodeling has profoundly impacted regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. The porcine-derived small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is a licensed bioscaffold material regularly used in wound and tissue repair, often in contaminated surgical fields. Complications and failures due to infection of this biomaterial have therefore been a major concern and challenge. SIS can be colonized and infected by wound-associated bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus aureus. In order to address this concern and develop novel intervention strategies, the immune microenvironment orchestrated by the combined action of S. aureus and SIS should be critically evaluated. Since the outcome of tissue remodeling is largely controlled by the local immune microenvironment, we assessed the innate immune profile in terms of cytokine/chemokine microenvironment and inflammasome-responsive genes. BALB/c mice were injected intra-peritoneally with heat-killed S. aureus in the presence or absence of SIS. Analyses of cytokines, chemokines and microarray profiling of inflammasome-related genes were done using peritoneal lavages collected 24 hours after injection. Results showed that unlike SIS, the S. aureus-SIS interactome was characterized by a Th1-biased immune profile with increased expressions of IFN-γ, IL-12 and decreased expressions of IL-4, IL-13, IL-33 and IL-6. Such modulation of the Th1/Th2 axis can greatly facilitate graft rejections. The S. aureus-SIS exposure also augmented the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines like IL-1β, Tnf-α, CD30L, Eotaxin and Fractalkine. This heightened inflammatory response caused by S. aureus contamination could enormously affect the biocompatibility of SIS. However, the mRNA expressions of many inflammasome-related genes like Nlrp3, Aim2, Card6 and Pycard were down-regulated by heat-killed S. aureus with or without SIS. In summary, our study explored the innate immune microenvironment induced by the combined exposure of SIS and S. aureus. These results have practical implications in developing strategies to contain infection and promote successful tissue repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A variety of mesh materials are available for ventral hernia repair (VHR), each with a unique set of characteristics. Surgeons are offered an ever-expanding selection of products, making a review of the available materials timely. METHODS Current surgical literature is reviewed to describe the different types of synthetic mesh, the indications for the use of each type, their relative risks of infection, and other benefits and shortcomings. We also review clinical studies demonstrating outcomes, efficacy, and use of the meshes in different surgical settings, including laparoscopic hernia repair and special situations such as infection or large abdominal wall defects. RESULTS Three main types of prosthetic mesh are available. Synthetic mesh, such as polypropylene (PP) or polyester, is characterized by high tensile strength and vigorous tissue ingrowth, but is unsuitable for intra-abdominal placement because of its tendency to induce bowel adhesions. Composite, or barrier-coated, mesh is a dual-sided prosthetic having a synthetic parietal side to promote a strong repair and a visceral surface that repels tissue ingrowth and decreases adhesion formation. Biologic mesh is a collagen-based human, porcine, or bovine scaffold that may be implanted in the extra- or intra-peritoneal position. Biologic mesh is used frequently in the setting of infected or contaminated surgical incisions. CONCLUSIONS Synthetic PP mesh is an appropriate, durable material for extra-peritoneal placement in uncomplicated, clean VHR. Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene and composite meshes are suitable for intraperitoneal placement during laparoscopic VHR. Biologic meshes may be appropriate for contaminated fields or other special situations, but there is no consensus on when or how to use them.

Abstract
AIM: To assess the effects of bile and pancreatic juice on structural and mechanical resistance of extracellular matrices (ECMs) in vitro.
METHODS: Small-intestinal submucosa (SIS), porcine dermal matrix (PDM), porcine pericardial matrix (PPM) and bovine pericardial matrix (BPM) were incubated in human bile and pancreatic juice in vitro. ECMs were examined by macroscopic observation, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and testing of mechanical resistance.
RESULTS: PDM dissolved within 4 d after exposure to bile or pancreatic juice. SIS, PPM and PDM retained their integrity for > 60 d when incubated in either digestive juice. The effect of bile was found to be far more detrimental to mechanical stability than pancreatic juice in all tested materials. In SIS, the loss of mechanical stability after incubation in either of the digestive secretions was less distinct than in PPM and BPM [mFmax 4.01/14.27 N (SIS) vs 2.08/5.23 N (PPM) vs 1.48/7.89 N (BPM)]. In SIS, the extent of structural damage revealed by SEM was more evident in bile than in pancreatic juice. In PPM and BPM, structural damage was comparable in both media.
CONCLUSION: PDM is less suitable for support of gastrointestinal healing. Besides SIS, PPM and BPM should also be evaluated experimentally for gastrointestinal indications.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN After undergoing anulotomy, lumbar intervertebral discs from sheep were treated with small intestinal submucosa (SIS) and assessed functionally at 24 weeks after surgery. OBJECTIVE To determine the efficacy of an SIS-based patch and plug scaffold to facilitate anular defect closure and anular functional recovery after anulotomy and partial discectomy. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The incidence of reherniation following discectomy remains high and mechanical means of anular closure have met with limited success. SIS is a naturally occurring collagen-based material, which acts as a resorbable scaffold in vivo that promotes soft tissue regeneration. METHODS Twelve sheep underwent retroperitoneal exposure of the lumbar spine. Three levels were assigned to either: no additional procedure, box anulotomy alone, or box anulotomy followed by placement of an SIS "patch and plug" anchored by titanium bone screws. At 26 weeks after surgery, 18 motion segments underwent pressure-volume testing to assess the competency of the anulus. High resolution MRI images were taken of the remaining 18 segments. Undecalcified histology was conducted on all specimens. RESULTS Radiographs, MRI images, and histology indicate that there was an exuberant tissue response at SIS-treated levels. New tissue formation in SIS-treated specimens was integrated well with the native anulus, but did not resemble the organization of native anulus. The extent of anular closure was substantial enough to allow the disc a functional recovery to a mean 66% of its capacity to develop internal pressure. MRI images indicate that SIS-treated levels did not maintain signal intensity comparable to exposure-only (intact) levels, but SIS-treated discs were statistically significantly higher than anulotomy-only levels. CONCLUSION SIS-treated discs were better able to maintain hydration and resulted in a functional recovery relative to anulotomy alone levels. The SIS patch and plug reduced the cascade of functional degeneration that an intervertebral disc undergoes following anulotomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different materials have been evaluated for anastomotic reinforcement to prevent gastrointestinal anastomotic leakage. In this experimental study, small intestinal submucosa (SIS) was tested as a sealing for stapled colonic anastomosis in a porcine model. The aims of this study were to determine the macroscopic and microscopic outcomes and to evaluate the safety and feasibility of applying SIS for anastomotic sealing. MATERIALS AND METHODS Circular stapled anastomoses were performed in 18 pigs. Standard anastomosis in the control group (n = 8) was compared to an SIS-sealed anastomosis in the study group (n = 10). After 30 days, anastomotic segments were examined for macroscopic and microscopic regeneration and their resistance to mechanical stress. Furthermore, animal survival and clinical course were evaluated. RESULTS None of the animals developed anastomotic leakage, intraabdominal abscess, or peritonitis. Shrinkage of SIS was evident in nine of ten animals. Encapsulation and displacement of the SIS patches were seen in two animals. Quantity of anastomotic granulation tissue and rate of complete mucosal coverage of anastomotic line were increased in SIS-sealed anastomoses without reaching significance. Moreover, no significant differences were found in the rate of survival of the animals, anastomotic stricture formation, intraabdominal adhesions, anastomotic bursting pressure, and microscopic healing parameters of the anastomosis between stapled colonic standard anastomosis and anastomosis protected by SIS. CONCLUSION The results of this study indicate a safe use of SIS for anastomotic reinforcement in a porcine model. Adverse effects like strictures, increased adhesions, and anastomotic abscesses were absent. Promoting effects on colonic wound healing by SIS were microscopically evident. The results argue for a careful clinical evaluation in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) has proved considerable regenerative capacity for repair of bowel wall defects at different locations. This study assesses the effectiveness of SIS in the repair of defects at a gastrointestinal location with strong bacterial contamination. METHODS Fourteen domestic pigs had a 4.5 x 1.5 cm full-thickness defect created on the wall of the descending colon. Repair was done by suturing an SIS patch to the defect. Grafts were harvested after 30, 60, and 90 days. Outcomes were evaluated on the basis of animal survival, clinical course, and macroscopic, histological, and immunohistochemical assessment. RESULTS All animals survived the scheduled observation period. No patch failure and no postoperative leakage occurred. No luminal narrowing occurred at SIS-patched colon. Morphometric examination revealed contraction of the patched area of 77% after 30 days and more than 90% after 60 and 90 days. By 60 and 90 days, all animals showed mucosal regeneration at the margins of the graft. By 90 days, regeneration of smooth muscle cells was present at the original site of the muscularis mucosae. None of the reconstructed areas showed complete mucosal coverage or regeneration of a structured muscular layer. CONCLUSION SIS can be used effectively for patch repair of colonic defects in a porcine model. Distinctive contraction of the reconstructed area and limited architectural regeneration of the bowel wall suggest limitation of morphologic regenerative capacities in large-bowel regeneration.

Abstract
The repair of gastric perforation commonly involves simple suture closure using an open or laparoscopic approach. An endolumenal approach using prosthetic materials may be beneficial. The role of bioprosthetics in this instance has not been thoroughly investigated, thus the authors evaluated the feasibility of gastric perforation repair using a bioabsorbable device and quantified gross and histological changes at the injury site. Twelve canines were anesthetized and underwent open gastrotomy. A 1-cm-diameter perforation was created in the anterior wall of the stomach and plugged with a bioabsorbable device. Intralumenal pH was recorded. Canines were sacrificed at one, four, six, eight, and 12 weeks. The stomach was explanted followed by gross and histological examination. The injury site was examined. The relative ability of the device to seal the perforation was recorded, as were postoperative changes. Tissue samples were analyzed for gross and microscopic tissue growth and compared to normal gastric tissue in the same animal as an internal control. A scoring system of -2 to +2 was used to measure injury site healing (-2= leak, -1= no leak and minimal ingrowth, 0= physiologic healing, +1= mild hypertrophic tissue, +2= severe hypertrophic tissue). In all canines, the bioprosthesis successfully sealed the perforation without leak under ex vivo insufflation. At one week, the device maintained its integrity but there was no tissue ingrowth. Histological healing score was -1. At 4-12 weeks, gross examination revealed a healed injury site in all animals. The lumenal portion of the plug was completely absorbed. The gross and histological healing score ranged from -1 to +1. The application of a bioabsorbable device results in durable closure of gastric perforation with physiologic healing of the injury site. This method of gastrotomy closure may aid in the evolution of advanced endoscopic approaches to perforation closure of hollow viscera.
