Additional Information
Percuflex Material is a proprietary copolymer with radiopaque filler that is designed specifically for the construction of ureteral stents. Stents constructed of Percuflex Material are available in firm, soft and dual durometers to meet the challenges of long-term ureteral stenting. Stents made of Percuflex Material have a soft, smooth and flexible surface and a HydroPlus Coating which provides an ideal interface between the stent and the epithelial layer of the ureter.Tests prove biocompatibility for an indwelling time of up to 365 days*
