A Laser-Assisted Anastomotic Technique: Feasibility on Human Diseased Coronary Arteries
Conclusions: This study demonstrates the feasibility of an anastomotic connector on human diseased coronary arteries and shows that lasering does not induce coronary wall damage. However, careful selection of the coronary, regarding the target inner diameter and disease status, will prevent construction failures. This connector could facilitate less invasive coronary artery bypass grafting.
