In a method of stapling layers of tissue within a body cavity, an engaging instrument is passed between a stapler cartridge and anvil and used to engage a region of tissue. The engaging instrument is retracted to move the engaged tissue into the stapling position, and driving staples from the cartridge through at least two layers of the engaged tissue. The method and associated system may be used to form plications in body tissue, such as stomach wall tissue. Staples simultaneously driven through tissue may simultaneously capture a reinforcing elements positioned adjacent the cartridge and/or anvil prior to stapling.

Procédé d'agrafage de couches de tissu dans une cavité de l'organisme, comportant l'insertion d'un instrument de prise entre une cartouche d'agrafes et l'enclume pour sa mise en contact avec une zone de tissu; le retrait de l'instrument de prise pour amener le tissu pincé en position d'agrafage, et le guidage des agrafes de la cartouche à travers au moins deux couches du tissu en prise. Le procédé et le système associé peuvent être utilisés pour former les plicatures dans le tissu de l'organisme, tel que le tissu de la paroi de l'estomac. Les agrafes simultanément entraînées à travers le tissu peuvent simultanément assurer la capture d'éléments de renforcement positionnés adjacents à la cartouche et/ou à l'enclume avant l'agrafage.
