TRACHEOBRONXANE® SILMET® STENT

TRACHEOBRONXANE® SILMET® STENT


TRACHEOBRONXANE® SILMET® is a new stent concept which ideally complements the Dumon® Stents for cases in which silicone stents are not indicated.

Silmet® is a self-expandable stent made of nitinol. Due to the special mesh structure together with the silicone covered nitinol, the stent is highly resistent to compression.

For improved intraoperative visualization, Silmet® has radiopaque gold markers.

Two versions are available: covered and non-covered.

Silmet® comes sterile in a large variety of sizes. Custom stents are available.

Silmet MCS is the standard stent if a silicone stent cannot be used.

The Polyester cover prevents tumor ingrowth. Even in case of benign stenoses NOVATECH strongly recommends placing Silmet® MCS which is easy to remove due to its cover.

NOVATECH offers a large choice of diameters and cover lengths.

TRACHEOBRONXANE® Silmet® MCS is available with diameters between 6 and 26 mm in 1 mm increments. The standard mesh length is 5 mm and the cover leaves 5 mm of mesh at each end of the stent uncovered.
