A Robust Bio-Supportive Hydrogel Patch for Full-Thickness Repair of Gastroesophageal Defects.
Surgical repair of gastroesophageal (GE) defects is a formidable clinical challenge, plagued by high leakage, fistula recurrence and life-threatening complications due to gastric acid exposure and persistent mechanical stress. To address this unmet need, we developed a robust bio-supportive (RBS) hydrogel patch for imm...
