W. L. Gore & Associates Inc. (Gore) announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted regulatory approval for commercial distribution of the Gore Tag Conformable Thoracic Stent Graft with Active Control System. The device is a thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) solution combining new levels of control with the performance of the Conformable Gore Tag Device. The device and delivery system provide new precision and predictable patient outcomes in the endovascular repair of aneurysms, transections and Type B dissections of the descending thoracic aorta. A smaller-diameter primary delivery sleeve gives the device and system a lower profile across 10 device sizes.
