Abstract
Simulated test of effectiveness of the original tool grasping tie – technically already illustrated in a former paper listed in bibliography – for fixing a spongy rubber tube simulating an oesophagus on a circular stapler head axis, by tightening over it a nylon ribbon slip-knot (the tie). After connecting the head to the stapler anvil through an other spongy rubber tube simulating a jejunal loop, and the firing of the stapler, it is demonstrated the correct circular anastomosis achievable.
