Publication number: 20190125396Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for percutaneously treating atherosclerotic plaques within blood vessels. Atherosclerotic plaques cause significant morbidity and mortality by narrowing the arteries, which adversely affects blood flow, and by acting as a source for thrombi and emboli thus causing acute organ ischemia. Current treatments include open surgery with its inherent drawbacks, and stenting, which is less invasive but leaves the plaque material in the artery, which promotes restenosis. The present invention combines the advantages of both approaches. In general, the invention provides tools that enable percutaneously dissecting the plaque from the arterial wall and removing it from the body.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2018Publication date: May 2, 2019Applicant: ANGIOWORKS MEDICAL, B.V.Inventors: Ben-Ami Avneri, Shahar Avneri, Itzhak Avneri
