Abstract

A patent application by inventor Peter Forsell proposes an artificial stomach to replace the natural stomach in patients who have undergone total gastrectomy due to stomach cancer. The artificial stomach includes features such as a food reservoir, inlet and outlet valves, and a servo reservoir for regulating food intake. This invention aims to improve the quality of life for patients who have had their stomach surgically removed, offering a potential solution to the challenges they face post-surgery.
