Since the introduction of the E‐Vita Open NEO aortic prosthesis in 2020, several incidences of post‐anastomotic oozing from the polyester portion of the graft have emerged. The use of BioGlue to prime E‐Vita Open NEO to prevent this has been suggested as a way to mitigate this worrying complication. We investigate the extent of graft oozing in E‐Vita Open NEO and evaluate the use of BioGlue in preventing oozing, both experimentally and in terms of potential clinical complications.
