Teleflex Inc. (TFX) said Thursday that it has bought Eon Surgical, Ltd., a late stage development company that has advanced a minimally invasive microlaparoscopy surgical platform technology designed to enhance surgeons' ability to perform scarless surgery while producing better patient outcomes.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Microlaparoscopy, unlike Natural OrificeTranslumenal Endoscopic Surgery or single incision surgery, provides surgeons a mechanism for performing minimally invasive procedures without significant changes in technique. The technology has the ability to be utilized for an entire procedure or as an adjunct to existing approaches that require additional access without adding to larger incisions and the associated risks.
While there are current technologies being marketed for use in microlaparoscopy or needlescopic approaches, adoption has not been significant due to limitations of available devices.
The purchase of Eon Surgical, coupled with already acquired intellectual property by Teleflex, is targeted at removing barriers to broad market adoption, Teleflex noted.
