Our through-the-scope (TTS) tracheal and bronchial stents expand the MICRO-TECH range of self-expanding stents. Unlike over-the-wire models, TTS stents allow easy and safe stent placement when viewed directly through a bronchoscope. Five different diameters and six different lengths are available. Each stent features a self-expanding Nitinol wire. Together with the uniquely braided stent ends, this ensures maximum hold and minimizes the risk of migration.

SUCCESSFUL APPLICATION IN PRACTICE
The signature TTS stent ends provide secure bridging of stenoses and leaks in the trachea. The slightly spher-ical design ensures a firm hold in any position, which is reinforced by the radial expansion force of the Nitinol wire, enabling the flexible adaptation of the stent to the patient’s anatomy.

SPECIALLY BRAIDED STENT ENDS
The stent is made from Nitinol wire, which is both highly flexible and retains its shape. The tips at the stent ends have an angle of less than 90°, which holds them in place inside the tissue and minimizes migration. The extraction thread also allows the stent to be repositioned for ideal placement in any situation.
FULLY COVERED
The high-quality covering is particularly resilient and elastic. It fits perfectly to the tracheal wall and ensures reliable ventilation.
FIVE DIAMETERS TO CHOOSE FROM
To ensure that the stent is ideally adapted to the patient‘s anatomy, it is available in five different diameters, guaranteeing maximum hold as well as patient comfort.
STENT LENGTHS FROM 20 TO 80 MM
Our TTS stent portfolio includes six lengths ranging from 20 mm to 80 mm. You thus have the ideal solution at your disposal, depending on the distance that needs to be bridged.
INSERTION SYSTEM FOR PRECISE CONTROL
The TTS stent comes pre-loaded in an innovative delivery system and is suitable for bronchoscopes with a working channel of 2.8 mm. The ergonomic design ensures user-friendly operation and accurate placement during bronchoscopy.
