Vascular anastomosis is commonly done by hand-sewn methods which not only are slow in pace, but also need experiences in surgeons' hands. As the old techniques are replaced by the new ones all the time, it is sensed that a new sutureless approach should be welcomed in the field of vascular anastomosis. Although lots of efforts have been done, such previous recommended techniques are associated with adverse consequences and here is where the need for new methods is still sensed. In this manuscript, we bring all the benefits from other methods together and conclude a novel one for end-to-end vascular anastomosis which uses biological glue as connecting material and also an absorbable stent to keep vessel patency while using balloon catheter and tacking suture.
