LINEAR VASCULAR ANASTOMOSIS SYSTEM

LINEAR VASCULAR ANASTOMOSIS SYSTEM

The development of "key hole" surgery and the use of robotic surgical systems has enabled surgeons to perform the most complicated procedures in a less invasive manner, improving outcomes, reducing the recovery time and costs for a great many patients. 
​
Complex vascular procedures such as coronary artery grafts and aortic aneurysm repairs are now being performed with a combination of endoscopic and mini incision techniques.  The ideal technique would enable surgeons to perform all parts of the procedure through the endoscopic ports including a safe, fast and reliable way to join vascular grafts of varying sizes and lengths.

A NEW PATH FORWARD

Utilizing shape memory alloy technologies, Endogene has developed a new fixation system for vascular grafts.
The most significant application of this technology would be its use in endoscopic vascular and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery (as well as open surgery). 

The system utilizes unique, miniature, shape memory alloy ring staples, and a dedicated delivery instrument.  The key advantage of the device is its ability to deliver multiple ring staples simultaneously, avoiding trauma to the graft and reducing the risk of stenosis (narrowing) at the graft-vessel junction.

ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM REPAIR

This system provides improved fixation of synthetic vascular graft prosthesis and would potentially allow the treatment of  patients with short aortic necks by fixing  the prosthesis to the aortic wall. This technique is well known to gastrointestinal surgeons, who introduced the concept of a stapled anastomosis, but the technology traditionally employed requires access to both the internal and external walls. This, in practice, limits the usage of previous stapler designs  in vascular surgery. The Endogene system solves this problem especially for endoluminal procedures, as it can achieve transmural fixation with only endoluminal access.

​The device can be manufactured as a single use, disposable unit in varying sizes and lengths to accommodate different vessel and graft types for "keyhole" and open surgical procedures.

A SOLUTION WITH MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS

The Endogene Linear Vascular Anastomosis System has many potential applications:
  • Coronary artery bypass grafts: open heart and keyhole surgery.
  • Multiple applications in bowel surgery, urology, gynecology, thoracic surgery.
  • Aortic aneurysm repair: open and endoscopic
  • Aortic and mitral heart  valve replacement; open and endovascular. 
  • Vascular anastomosis in transplant surgery of small and large bowel (vessel connections)  for both  open and laparoscopic procedures.
