The present disclosure relates to the field of endoscopy. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for en bloc resection of malignant and pre-malignant lesions and/or tumors within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for delivering an expandable scaffold between tissue layers (e.g., between the muscularis and submucosa layers) to elevate and stabilize the lesion or tumor for fast and efficient resection.

Expandable scaffolds for submucosal tissue separation

A reduced absorption device may include a proximal anchor and a distal sleeve including a frame and a membrane. The membrane may include a plurality of porous regions, and each porous region may be configured to align with a corresponding region of an intestine configured to absorb nutrients.

Devices and methods for reducing absorption

A device for treating tissue may include a tissue expander configured to be inserted into a body lumen and stretch tissue surrounding the body lumen, and a tool configured to be coupled to the tissue expander and move along a path defined by the tissue expander.
