Abstract
A new multiband ligator is presented which is fully reusable. Experience in 67 patients (22 with varices and 45 with early cancers undergoing mucosal resection) showed good technical function and no significant complications. Use of this device may significantly reduce the costs of endoscopic ligation.Keywords
