OAS - Staplers for Open Aortic Surgery

ES Vascular's single use Open Aortic Stapler (OAS) provides a one-shot, perfect anastomosis while connecting a synthetic graft to the aorta for AAA repair.
The quick, uniform, one-shot sutureless anastomosis may eliminate up to 90% of suturing time and reduce clamping and operative times as well as re-clamping cycles and bleeding.
  • AAA procedures are mostly open, dangerous (ca. 5% mortality), lengthy (2-3hrs) and require quite a long in-hospital stay.
  • Suturing the difficult graft-aorta anastomosis accounts for both long clamping times (up to 50% of operative time) and re-clamping cycles, a major risk for the patient.
  • OAS overcomes technical obstacles (e.g. highly calcified aorta) hampered the development of stapling technology for vascular surgery to date.
