Rescue Thoracic Aortic Stent Graft

Unmet NeedThe Artery of Adamkewicz is the name of the dominant artery that supplies blood to the spinal cord. During thoracic aortic stent grafting, the artery can become occluded, leading to a multitude of complications, most commonly, paraplegia. When occlusion of the Artery of Adamkewicz occurs, the pathology is mediated by the covered stent exclusion...

Chimney Graft Guiding Stent for Complex Aortic Aneurysm Repairs

Unmet NeedAbdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are the 10th leading cause of death. The most common AAA is the infra-renal variety, which is also the simplest to repair. Currently most can be repaired via the “minimally invasive” endovascular approach, in which a bifurcated, fabric-covered, sleeve is introduced through the femoral arteries, relining the...
