Focal treatment with minimal metal treats only the area where dissections are present and avoids covering portions of healthy tissue.

Leaves behind significantly less metal than stents, preserving vessel integrity, future treatment options and—ultimately—limbs.
Adaptive sizing
Adaptive sizing
Only the Tack endovascular system features adaptive sizing – which allows each Tack implant to adapt to tapering anatomy while maintaining a relatively constant radial force. This means that a single size Tack implant can be used across a wide range of vessel diameters.

Intended use: The Tack endovascular system (4F, 1.5 mm-4.5 mm) is intended for use in mid/ distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries, ranging in diameter from 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm, for the treatment of post percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) dissection(s). The Tack endovascular system (6F, 3.5-6.0 mm US/ 2.5-6.0 mm EU and 4.0-8.0 mm) is intended for use in the superficial femoral and proximal popliteal arteries ranging in diameter from 3.5 mm to 6.0 mm US/ 2.5 to 6.0 mm EU and 4.0 mm to 8.0 mm for the repair of post percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) dissection(s).
Contraindications for use: The Tack endovascular system is contraindicated for the following: 1. Patients with residual stenosis in the treated segment equal to or greater than 30% after PTA. 2. Tortuous vascular anatomy significant enough to prevent safe introduction and passage of the device. 3. Patients with a known hypersensitivity to nickel titanium alloy (Nitinol). 4. Patients unable to receive standard medication used for interventional procedures such as anticoagulants, contrast agents and antiplatelet therapy.
Prior to using the Tack endovascular system, please review the instructions for use for a complete listing of indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions, potential adverse events and directions for use.
