Abstract

Multi-bending 2 channel scope (GIF-2TQ260M, Olympus Optical, Japan) is the operative endoscope which has multi-bending system and two channels of 3.2mm in diameter. This scope can approach to everywhere in stomach by multi-bending system and we can use both channels depending on the situation. In addition, it is possible to use two channels at the same moment.

The primary hemostasis rate using this scope was 100% among 5 months in our institute. Comparing to GIF-Q260J, suction ability of GIF-2TQ260M is almost the same. However, when we insert treatment devices such as hemostatic forceps through the channel, suction ability of GIF-2TQ260M is sometimes better than GIF-Q260J. This is because the right channel of GIF-2TQ260M doesn't connect to suction channel. So when we insert treatment devices through the left channel, suction capability gets worse. In contrast, when we insert treatment devices through the right channel, suction ability remains normal. GIF-2TQ260M is useful for not only treatment such as ESD but also hemostatic treatment.
