Used to dislodge adherent material in native vessels and synthetic grafts
For extracting thrombus that is too resistant for an elastomeric balloon
Corkscrew design increases the surface area for entrapping fibrous material
Radiopaque and flexible
Fogarty graft thrombectomy catheter
Designed for removing organized and adherent thrombus from synthetic grafts, such as aortofemoral graft
For thrombus too resistant for an elastomeric balloon
Provides a larger diameter range than the Fogarty adherent clot catheter
The pulling force can be varied by adjusting the diameter
The reason is simple. Through collaboration and clinical learning,
Edwards Lifesciences has continued to evolve and advance its Fogarty
catheters to meet the exacting needs of specialists for vascular
procedures. Their proven performance and manufacturing quality
has led surgeons to specify genuine Fogarty catheters – available
exclusively from Edwards – for millions of procedures worldwide
