Fistula Repair Device

The Surgisis® AFP™ Fistula Plug is the firstsurgical device specifically designed for the repair of fistulas. A fistula, an abnormal channel that develops between body organs, most commonly occurring from the intestine to an opening in the skin, can be painful and seriously impact a patient’s quality of life. Surgisis AFP is a cone-shaped medical device designed to allow a surgeon to easily place it into a fistula channel. Once in place, Surgisis AFP serves as a bio-scaffold to facilitate well-organized tissue regeneration to close the fistula.
