A Safe Technique for Using an Enclose II Anastomosis Assist Device During Off-Pump Coronary Bypass

Several proximal anastomosis devices have been developed to facilitate the creation of a clampless, hand-sewn coronary artery bypass-to-ascending aorta anastomosis. An Enclose II anastomosis assist device (Novare Surgical Systems, Cupertino, CA) is a device commonly used for this purpose. We demonst...

Zusammenfassung:	Several proximal anastomosis devices have been developed to facilitate the creation of a clampless, hand-sewn coronary artery bypass-to-ascending aorta anastomosis. An Enclose II anastomosis assist device (Novare Surgical Systems, Cupertino, CA) is a device commonly used for this purpose. We demonstrate a new, easy, and safe technique for cutting the aortic wall and making a punch hole over the aorta.
