Niti-S™ KAFFES™ Biliary Stent
Category: Biliary Stents
To treat anastomic strictures after liver transplantation
Details and Features
- Characteristic waist at mid-portion of the stent: Waist shape of the stent allows strong radial force and preventing migration
- Short length of stent: Using a short stent across the stricture prevents to impart pressure over a large area of normal duct by reducing the potential risk of necrosis and fibrosis
- Long platinum radio-paqued retrieval string: The long platinum string helps easy removal from the high up location of CBD
- Radiopaque Marker: Three (3) at both ends and two (2) in the middle
