Frequently Asked Questions

What is the AEON surgical stapler?

AEON is an FDA-cleared endoscopic surgical stapling system designed and manufactured in the USA by Lexington Medical, Inc. (Bedford, MA). It is available in manual and powered versions and offers 36 reload configurations with the widest staple height range on the market.

Is there an alternative to the Ethicon Echelon stapler?

Yes. A published clinical study found the AEON Endostapler produced a significantly drier staple line than the Echelon Flex Powered Stapler, reducing the need for additional bleeding-control interventions.

Which surgical stapler is best for thick tissue?

AEON’s Thick Mode gear reduces firing force in thick tissue, improving staple formation and hemostasis. AEON offers the widest staple height range on the market, covering tissue from fine vessels to thick stomach.
