摘要:
Devices and methods are provided for forming and securing a tissue plication. More particularly, the devices and methods of the present invention can be used to create multiple tissue folds on an anterior and posterior wall of a stomach cavity to reduce the volume thereof. In one aspect, a tissue acquisition and fixation system is disclosed including a stapling member having first and second jaws that are effective to apply at least one staple to tissue engaged between the jaws, a tissue acquisition member coupled to at least one of the first and second jaws, and a secondary tissue acquirer coupled to the tissue acquisition member. The secondary tissue acquirer is configured to engage tissue and maintain the tissue in position relative to the tissue acquisition member.
