LAMS

Lumen-apposing metal stents for EUS-guided therapeutic drainage.

Lumen-apposing metal stents have transformed therapeutic endoscopic ultrasound. Their dual-flange design holds two lumens in apposition, creating a stable, leak-resistant channel for drainage or anastomosis, procedures that previously required surgery or percutaneous access.

Key Features

  • Dual-flange, lumen-apposing design for secure anchorage
  • Electrocautery-enhanced delivery for single-step access and deployment
  • Multiple diameters for drainage and direct endoscopic intervention
  • Fully covered construction to resist leakage and tissue ingrowth

Clinical Applications

  • Pancreatic pseudocyst and walled-off necrosis drainage
  • EUS-guided gallbladder drainage
  • EUS-guided gastroenterostomy
