  • IN-SITU FENESTRATION DEVICES WITH ACTUATED CUTTER STRUTS
    Publication number: 20240033069
    Abstract: A device for creating an in-situ fenestration in a graft material of a stent graft at a fenestration site. The device includes an outer member forming a lumen and an inner member situated within the lumen of the outer member. The outer member includes one or more cutters configured to change from a delivery position to a cutting position via axial movement of the outer member and/or the inner member.

  • Tissue-removing catheter
    Patent number: 11819236
    Abstract: A tissue-removing catheter for removing tissue in a body lumen includes a catheter body assembly having an axis and proximal and distal end portions spaced apart from one another along the axis. At least a portion of the catheter body assembly is sized and shaped to be received in the body lumen. A handle is mounted to the proximal end portion of the catheter body assembly and operable to cause rotation of the catheter body assembly. The handle includes internal handle components that interface with the catheter body assembly. The internal handle components provide at least four interface locations spaced axially along the catheter body assembly. A tissue-removing element is mounted on the distal end portion of the catheter body assembly. The tissue-removing element is configured to remove the tissue as the tissue-removing element is rotated by the catheter body assembly within the body lumen.
