Comvi™ Tracheal (Triple Layer, Uncovered)
Category: Bronchial Stents |
Available in Tracheal and Bronchial sizes. A triple layered unfixed cell stent provides the ideal combination of radial and axial force to maintain full lumen patency in tortuous anatomies. Available in fully covered or bare ends. Bio-compatible PTFE membrane tube is held between inner and outer mesh.
Indication
Malignant and benign tracheobronchial obstruction
Features
- Triple layered construction: Biocompatible PTFE membrane tube is held between inner and outer mesh
- Retrieval string at the proximal end: reposition or removal of stent
- Radiopaque marker: 4 (four) at both ends and 4 (four) at the middle
- Unfixed cell structure enables stent to conform to tortuous anatomy
- Outer wire mesh reduces the risk of migration
