Brief Summary: This registry is intended to collect data on quality assurance and use of the VAC-Stent® and thus verify the suitability of the VAC-Stent® for sealing leakages in the oesophagus or colon. Furthermore, the safety and efficacy of the VAC-Stent® shall be proven.
Detailed Description: For this registry, quality assurance data will be prospectively collected from all patients who receive the VAC-Stent®. The VAC-Stent® combines a vacuum sponge, which lies intraluminal and conditions the wound, with a covered stent, which seals the sponge from the lumen and thus ensures passage. Due to its design, the new medical device VAC-Stent® offers a solution for the most important problems of the covered stent, the stent migration and the lack of drainage function, as well as for those of the endoluminal vacuum sponge, the blockage of the gastrointestinal lumen and the difficult application. The VAC-Stent® is the technical advancement for all indications of the covered stent and for the indication of the endoluminal vacuum sponge, so that a very good effectiveness with reduced complications can be expected for these clinical situations. The VAC-Stent® therefore offers the prospect of an innovative further development in the endoscopic treatment of leaks in the gastrointestinal tract, without any new and unknown risks being associated with it. The primary aim of this registry is to collect data on the quality assurance and application of the VAC-Stent® and thus to evaluate the suitability of the VAC-Stent® for sealing leaks in the oesophagus or colon. In addition, the safety and efficacy of the VAC-Stent® will be demonstrated.
