Researchers at New York University Tandon School of Engineering have developed a new stent to treat gastric leaks. Their prototype, called the Lily stent, is the first product of a design framework the researchers named Personalized Endoscopic Transmural Abscess Leak Solution (PETALS), a mathematical approach to optimizing drain shape for complex biological fluids that the team says could be applied beyond gastric leaks to other drainage challenges in the body. Overview of th
