Seal-G/ Seal-G MIST Long-Term Follow-up PMCF (Continue) Study

Postoperative complications following colon anastomosis surgery, such as adhesions, stenosis, stricture and obstruction, can significantly impact patient outcomes. The use of surgical sealants has been proposed as a means to mitigate anastomotic complications by providing a protective barrier over the anastomosis site, reducing the risk or the severity of anastomotic leak. The previous post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study assessed the short-term safety and performance of SEAL-G surgical sealants in preventing anastomotic leaks and early post-operative complications. However, long-term data are needed to establish its sustained safety and effectiveness.

This continuation study aims to evaluate the long-term impact of the SEAL-G/MIST surgical sealant on post-operative complications over 12+ months after surgery. The study will compare complication rates in patients treated with the surgical sealant to a retrospective comparable control group who underwent similar procedures without the sealant.
