UNITY-B Percutaneous Balloon Expandable Biodegradable Biliary Stent System

The UNITY-B Percutaneous Balloon Expandable Biodegradable Biliary Stent System is designed to be used to treat biliary occlusion with the added benefit of biodegradation to potentially minimize the complications associated with traditional metal stents such as perforation, stent-in-growth, stent-over-growth and the inability to remove metal stents.

Features & Benefits

> Can be placed with the same traditional approach used for balloon expandable metallic stents
> Can be produced in a wide range of sizes
> Has minimal recoil and foreshortening
> Has the potential to function like a metallic stent
> Has the potential to be used in non-conforming strictures
> Has the potential to not require advanced preparation of the stricture
