Balloon Arm-Mechanical Counter-Traction System (BA-MCTS). (A) This is a balloon-type counter-traction device that uses a large number of single-side expanded balloons. The expansion ability for a collapsing stomach wall is slightly inferior to that of MCTS, but its operability is acceptable. (B) Expansion of a surgical field is enabled in any part of the excised porcine stomach without insufflation, even in the reversed position.
