Libro Non-adhesive Embolization(DMSO-EVOH)
Libro is a non adhesive liquid embolic agent for embolization of brain Arteriovenous Malformations (AVM).
It is composed of EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer) with suspended micronized Tantalum powder for radiopacity and DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) solvent that provides complete filling and distal penetration1 of peripheral and neurovascular lesions. Its non-adhesive properties permit more distal nidus embolisation without significant risk of catheter entrapment, while higher viscosities allow for controlled deployment
Libro must be injected through a DMSO compatible microcatheter.
DMSO solvent dissipates into the blood, causing the EVOH copolymer and suspended tantalum to precipitate in situ into a spongy, coherent embolus
Precipitation occurs on contact with aqueous solution (eg blood, water, contrast).It is fluid and solidifies from the outside as the solvent disperses it transmits in a cohesive manner, forming a spongy, coherent embolus.
Provides Controlled Delivery.
Slow controlled injection and delivery method.
Ability to start and stop injections (pauses should not exceed 2 minutes).
Adhesive deposition and delivery.
Provides the user with excellent visibility.
Controlled angiography during embolic injection.
Libro is immediately forms a skin as the polymeric embolus solidifies from the outside to the inside, while traveling more distally in the lesion.
• Libro is available in three product formulations, Libro (6% EVOH),
• Libro (6.5% EVOH) and Libro (8% EVOH):
• Libro (6% EVOH), Libro (6.5% EVOH) Recommended when feeding pedicle injections will be conducted close to the nidus.
• Libro(8% EVOH): Recommended for embolizing higher flow and larger fistulous components.
• Neuro Aneurysms and AVM’s
• Intracranial aneurysms, endoleaks
• Short prosedure time.
• High power visibility
• Micronized grain size of tantalum powder
A unique solution for pre-surgical embolization of arteriovenous malformations
Libro is a non-adhesive EVOH-based liquid embolic agent for the embolization of peripheral and neurovascular Arteriovenous Malformations (AVM).
