Abstract

The LigaSure Vessel Sealing System is an energy-based haemostatic tool that produces permanent vessel occlusion. It was developed as an alternative method for ligating vascular bundles quickly and reliably during surgery. This study demonstrates its efficacy on intra-hepatic bile ducts in a porcine in vitro model.
