Vascular Graft Solutions (VGS), was founded in 2009 and is focusing on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to improve the outcome of bypass surgeries. The company’s leading product, the VEST (Venous External Scaffolding Technology), is a novel external mechanical support for autologous vein grafts, intended for improving vein graft longevity. Pre-clinical and clinical studies confirmed that by restraining wall tension and improving lumen uniformity, the VEST optimizes vein graft hemodynamics and mitigates vein graft disease. Randomized controlled trials and real-world data studies in Europe, demonstrated the biomechanical effect of external stenting, its statistically significant mitigation of vein graft disease, and improved clinical outcomes.
