Sutureless Microvascular Anastomosis using Intravascular Stenting and Cyanoacrylate Adhesive

摘要

Background Microvascular anastomosis using cyanoacrylate adhesive has a reputation among researchers as an alternative to conventional sutures. However, a degree of ingenuity is required to avoid the collapse of the vascular lumen for the duration of the anastomosis. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of intravascular stenting (IVaS) as a temporary stent during sutureless microvascular anastomosis with cyanoacrylate adhesive.
