Sealing of Vessels Larger Than 7 Millimeters Using Enseal in Porcine Aorta
BACKGROUND The Enseal (Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Blue Ash, Ohio) tissue-sealing device has proven efficacy for ligation of vessels<7 mm in diameter, even with significant supraphysiologic bursting pressures. We aimed to evaluate the safety of Enseal in porcine vessels>7 mm. MATERIALS AND METHODS The lumbar aortas of pigs that were euthanized for unrelated procedures were harvested. A 5- to 6-cm s...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Nephrectomy Using the EnSeal Tissue Sealing and Hemostasis System: Successful Therapeutic Application of Nanotechnology
The potential impact of nanotechnology in the field of urology is broad with diagnostic and therapeutic benefits that have only recently begun to be explored. Application of nanotechnology principles to tissue and vessel sealing during laparoscopic procedures may reduce associated thermal injury and inflammatory response. We report our initial experience using the EnSeal Tissue Sealing and Hemo...
متن کاملRapid sealing and cutting of porcine blood vessels, ex vivo, using a high-power, 1470-nm diode laser.
Suture ligation with subsequent cutting of blood vessels to maintain hemostasis during surgery is time consuming and skill intensive. Energy-based electrosurgical and ultrasonic devices are often used to replace sutures and mechanical clips to provide rapid hemostasis and decrease surgery time. Some of these devices may create undesirably large collateral zones of thermal damage and tissue necr...
متن کاملDirectional coronary atherectomy versus coronary angioplasty in vessels larger than 3 mm in diameter.
It has been proposed that directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) should be an intervention of choice in larger vessels as one can achieve a greater minimal luminal diameter with DCA than with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). This in turn should translate into a higher success rate and may even reduce the restenosis rate. The aim of this study was to compare DCA versus PTCA...
متن کاملSealing vessels up to 7 mm in diameter solely with ultrasonic technology
INTRODUCTION Ultrasonic energy is a mainstay in the armamentarium of surgeons, providing multifunctionality, precision, and control when dissecting and sealing vessels up to 5 mm in diameter. Historically, the inability to seal vessels in the 5-7 mm range has been perceived as an inherent limitation of ultrasonic technology. The purpose of this study was to evaluate sealing of vessels up to 7 m...
