The ring is composed of two parts polyglycolic acid (Dexon) and one part barium sulfate. It dissolves, or \u201cfragments,\u201d about 3 weeks after implantation, when major tissue healing has occurred. The ring is easy to use; postoperative complications may include leakage and, rarely, intestinal stricture."}
