A novel vascular stapler for anastomosis
- Technology Benefits
- A fast and efficient methodConsistent and reproducible results regardless of the operatorApplicable in any surgical setting where end-to-end anastomosis is required
- Technology Application
- Liver transplant surgeries for quick and uniform reconnection of the portal vein, the main blood supply to the liverAnastomosis of different-sized vessels (e.g. arteriovenous fistula) or in other transplant surgeries (e.g. heart and lung)Any surgical procedure requiring end-to-end anastomosis of tubular tissue (e.g. intestinal surgery)
- Detailed Technology Description
- The present technology is a novel vascular stapler that provides both a quick and uniform anastomosis in an automated manner. The unique design holds the ends of each blood vessel in an open fashion while the device then approximates the vessels' ope...
