Magnetic Vascular Anastomosis to Connect Blood Vessels and Other Hollow Structures

Unmet NeedThere are around 600,000 vascular surgeries and 400,000 cardiac surgeries performed each year in the United States. Both types of surgeries rely on the ability of the surgeon to restore blood flow into blocked vessels. In open surgery, flow is usually re-established by bypassing the areas of blockage. Bypassing utilizes conduits that are comprised...
