Indicated for use in patients with atherosclerotic disease of the iliac arteries and for the treatment of insufficient results after Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA), e.g. residual stenosis and dissection.*
Designed to provide suficient chronic outward force and flexibility
Segmented stent design and strut thickness to provide sufficient chronic outward force in the iliac territory, while the peak-to-valley design and S-articulating connecting bars provide multi-directional flexibility and avoid fish-scaling in tortuous arteries
proBIO® silicon carbide coating reduces ion release by acting as an effective and reliable barrier to nickel and other heavy metal ion diffusion2
Pull-back delivery system enables simple stent deployment, while the easy release relieves friction of introducer valve on the retractable shaft during stent deployment, providing a smoother action
6F distal shaft with a 5.2F proximal shaft allows contrast injection while the device is positioned inside the introducer and across the lesion
