Intra-luminal graft interposed with a titanic ring was used for distal anastomosis in a dissecting ... read more ↘ patient who received Bentall's operation. Tapes were used to secure the ring against the fragile aorta. Unlike the previously marketed Meadox intraluminal grafts, the furrow on the surface of the ring may ensure a good fixation and hemostasis. We have been using this technique for various types of open surgeries in aortic dissection for over 5 years, and the results are excellent. The use of vascular ring connector facilitates the speed of anastomosis and reduces the pump time, thus greatly reduces the risk of surgery. ↖ read less
