Easy to apply
The surgeon creates an arteriotomy and injects LeGoo retrograde while withdrawing the cannula. LeGoo can allow for a shorter dissection.
At room temperature LeGoo is a soft gel and is easy to inject. |
Provides a bloodless surgical field
Within seconds, the higher temperature inside the vessel causes LeGoo to form a plug that prevents blood flow. |
Easier to create anastomosis
LeGoo keeps the vessel cylindrical to ease sewing and can be sewn through. |
Blood flow is easily restored
Applying ice or infusing cold saline causes dissolution. Blood flow is naturally restored as the LeGoo plug dissolves. |
