ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is specifically engineered for the palliative treatment of patients with malignant biliary strictures.

Its design focuses on maintaining sustained lumen patency and includes superior features:

• Highest Radial Force: Offers the highest expansion force available among stents to effectively maintain the opening against stricture pressure.
• Anatomical Conformity: Constructed from highly flexible Nitinol, allowing it to conform accurately to complex or tortuous anatomical pathways.
• Secure Placement: Features polished, flared ends designed for excellent anchoring within the duct, which minimizes the potential for migration.

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is engineered using specialized, high-quality materials to ensure efficacy, excellent radial force, and precise placement in palliative treatment.

Key materials and their benefits include:

• Highly Flexible Nitinol: The stent body is constructed from flexible Nitinol, allowing it to conform accurately even in complex or torturous anatomical pathways. It also offers the highest expansion force available among similar devices, which is critical for actively maintaining lumen patency.
• Radiopaque Tantalum Spoons: The device incorporates four highly radiopaque Tantalum Spoons. These serve as marker bands when the stent is compressed, providing the best fluoroscopic visibility for accurate deployment control.
• Polished Flared Ends: The design features polished flared ends that ensure robust anchoring within the duct, substantially mitigating the potential for migration.

The delivery system features a one-click, single-handed pistol grip deployment system designed for unsurpassed placement accuracy. The highly flexible catheter is built to conform to torturous anatomy.Its key specifications are:

• Catheter Diameter: 7.5 French
• Catheter Length: 75 inches (190 cm)
• Recommended Guidewire: 0.035 inches (0.89 mm)

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent delivery system is designed for compatibility with a 0.035” (0.89 mm) guidewire, which is the recommended size for accurate deployment and optimal performance.

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus stent is engineered for superior anchoring to maintain accurate placement and minimize migration. This is achieved through its key design feature: The stent utilizes polished flared ends that provide robust and secure anchoring within the biliary duct.

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is engineered with a specialized delivery system that ensures superior placement accuracy and control. This design is crucial for complex procedures.

Key features that enhance control include:

• Superior Deployment Control: The system features a unique one-click, single-handed pistol grip mechanism. This design provides unsurpassed control and accuracy, minimizing the risk of accidental or premature deployment.
• Precise Visual Guidance: A white endoscopic marker is included on the catheter to facilitate precise placement control under endoscopic visualization.

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is engineered with multiple features to ensure superior visibility and placement control during the procedure:

• Enhanced Fluoroscopic Visibility: The stent provides the best fluoroscopic visibility, which is complemented by four highly radiopaque Tantalum Spoons. These act as marker bands when the stent is compressed, allowing for highly accurate guidance.
• Endoscopic Placement Control: A distinct white endoscopic marker is included on the delivery catheter to further assist in precise placement during endoscopic viewing.
• Placement Accuracy: The delivery system utilizes a one-click, single-handed pistol grip, ensuring unsurpassed control and accuracy, which minimizes the risk of premature or imprecise deployment.

The ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is offered in several configurations to accommodate varying anatomical needs for the palliative treatment of malignant biliary strictures. The available stent sizes (Diameter x Length) are presented below:

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is constructed using highly flexible Nitinol, which is engineered to provide the highest expansion force available in its class. This critical feature ensures reliable maintenance of lumen patency, even when conforming to complex or torturous biliary anatomy.

Yes, the ConMed Flexxus Endoscopic Biliary Stent is engineered with a flexible Nitinol design that allows it to conform to torturous or complex anatomies, aiding in precise and effective placement.
