Flexagon Self Forming Magnet Anastomosis Plus OTOLoc for Creating side-to-side Colon Anatomoses

Flexagon Self Forming Magnet Anastomosis Plus OTOLoc for Creating side-to-side Colon Anatomoses: The SFM plus OTOLoc is used to create an immediate flow compression anastomosis for patients undergoing: Right or Left Hemicolectomy, Sigmoidectomy and Low Anterior resection

Study summary

The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of the Flexagon 25mm SFM system plus OTOLoc when used to create a side-to-side Ileo-colic, Colo-colonic and side-to-side or end-to-side colorectal anastomoses in participants undergoing colon surgery. This will be evaluated via a composite safety/effectiveness endpoint of patient success defined as successful creation of the target anastomosis without placement procedure, device or target anastomosis related reoperation through 30 days.
