Case Example: Tack Endovascular System

Dr. Elizabeth Genovese, Vascular Surgeon and Assistant Professor of Surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina, shares an above-the-knee case involving an occlusion of a previously placed stent, and a residual lesion at the proximal portion of the stent, popliteal stenosis, and a dissection. Dr. Genovese shares the case details and results, including use of a new technology for repairing post percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) dissections. The Philips Dissection Repair Device — Tack Endovascular System — is purpose-built to treat dissections, leading to improvements in PTA outcomes.
