Anastomosis is the surgical connection of two hollow organs or vessels in the body. It involves connecting or reconnecting tubular structures together after resection to restore passage. Some common types of anastomoses include intestinal anastomoses during bowel resections, vascular anastomoses during coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and tracheal anastomoses during lung resections....
Advancements in Anastomosis DevicesOver the next few decades, considerable research and development went into improving the design of annuloplasty. The introduction of low-profile articulating and transoral platforms in the early 2000s expanded their clinical applications beyond gastrointestinal procedures. Device manufacturers focused on making the instruments more ergonomic, intuitive to use,...
Mechanical Thrombectomy Devices One of the earliest and most commonly used types of clot management devices are mechanical thrombectomy systems. These employ a variety of technologies to physically capture or break up thrombi and remove them from the vasculature. Some prominent examples include stentrievers, aspiration catheters, and ultrasonic thrombectomy devices. Stentrievers utilize a...
