Edwards Lifesciences Fogarty Thru-Lumen Embolectomy Catheters - Embolectomy Catheter, 5.5 Fr x 80 cm - 12TLW805F35

Introduced more than 30 years ago by Dr. Thomas J. Fogarty, these embolectomy catheters are indicated for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arterial system. Remains the leading choice for simple and rapid removal of emboli and thrombi from the arterial system. Recessed winding technique for balloon attachment ensures balloon symmetry for uniform contact with vessel walls, providing consistent clot removal. For removal of more adherent or fibrous material, refer to the Fogarty adherent clot catheter.
