Recent Device Approvals: Low-Profile Visualized Intraluminal Support Device (LVIS and LVIS Jr.)

The FDA has recently approved the Low-Profile Visualized Intraluminal Support Device (LVIS and LVIS Jr.) to be marketed.  The LVIS Device is a stent and delivery system used to treat certain brain aneurysms. The stent is a self-expanding, nickel-titanium (nitinol) single wire braid. The delivery system consists of an introducer and delivery wire and is used to deliver the stent to the aneurysm. The stent keeps the soft platinum coils that are put into the aneurysm from slipping back into the main blood vessel.  For more information, please see: http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/ProductsandMedicalProcedures/DeviceApprovalsandClearances/Recently-ApprovedDevices/ucm411207.htm
