Mechanical strength and hydrostatic testing of VIVO adhesive in sutureless microsurgical anastomoses: an ex vivo study
Abstract Conventional anastomoses with interrupted sutures are challenging and inevitably associated with trauma to the vessel walls. The goal of this study was to evaluate a novel alternative adhesive-based suture-free anastomosis technique that uses an intraluminal stent. Overall, 120 porcine coro...

Abstract Conventional anastomoses with interrupted sutures are challenging and inevitably associated with trauma to the vessel walls.

Overall, 120 porcine coronary vessels were analyzed in an ex vivo model and were examined for their mechanical (n = 20 per cohort) and hydrostatic strength (n = 20 per cohort). Anastomoses were made using the novel VIVO adhesive with an additional intraluminal nitinol stent and was compared to interrupted suture anastomosis and to native vessels. Sutureless anastomoses withstood pressures 299 ± 4.47 [mmHg] comparable to native vessels.
