Arbor Surgical Technologies

Arbor Surgical Technologies was a medical device company focused on developing innovative technologies for heart valve replacement and repair. The company's flagship product was the 3f Enable Aortic Bioprosthesis, a sutureless tissue heart valve designed to simplify surgical implantation and reduce bypass time. Founded in 2002 and based in Irvine, California, the company aimed to improve patient outcomes in cardiac surgery through less invasive and more efficient valve solutions. In 2009, Arbor Surgical Technologies was acquired by Medtronic to bolster its structural heart portfolio. The acquisition allowed Medtronic to integrate sutureless valve technology into its existing line of heart valve products.
