  • ORDERING INFO

MicroCATH Catheter is the Neurovascular intervention that use of minimally-invasive endovascular techniques to treat vascular diseases of the brain. Physicians who perform these procedures receive highly specialized training in interventional neuroradiology and/or endovascular neurosurgery.

We offer advanced solutions for the treatments of the following brain diseases:

Intracerebral AVMs and AV Fistulas

Intracerebral aneurysms

Inntracranial stenosis

Ischemic stroke and intracerbral thrombus

Tumors

MicroCATH Catheter is the  Flow dependant micro catheter with a strong resistance to pressure and total DMSO compatibility.

The  catheters are the only real flow dependant catheters, meaning that their progression through the arteries system is facilitated by the blood flow. This characteristic is achieved thanks to an extreme suppleness of the tubes which allows a fast and non traumatic progression of the catheter inside the blood vessels.

Compatible embolizing agents

  • NBCA
  • ethanol
  • lipiodol
  • microspheres
  • PVA Particles
  • Chemoembolization Agents
  • Contrast media

The use of the MicroCATH detachable-tip microcatheter for embolization of AVMs and AVFs is associated with high rates of successful catheterization and obliteration and low rates of morbidity and mortality.
