ExoVasc® Personalised External Aortic Root Support
The ExoVasc® Personalised External Aortic Root Support is a revolutionary new device. It is designed to manage aortic dilation in people with Marfan syndrome and related genetic conditions.
The ExoVasc® is placed around the ascending aorta where it provides support to the patient’s own aorta and aortic valve and is designed to prevent enlargement and rupture.
This innovation developed by Exstent Limited sets a new standard in the surgical management of the dilated aorta. More than 180 patients have now received their ExoVasc® support and its effectiveness is proven by a total of over 600 patient-years’ experience gained during the past 14 years.
This site contains more information on the ExoVasc® support and the company behind its development.
