What It Is

The Vivorte Trabexus EB is an embolization microsphere device. It is used to occlude blood vessels, typically in procedures to treat hypervascular tumors or arteriovenous malformations. The device works by being delivered through a catheter to the target site, where it blocks blood flow to specific areas, aiding in therapeutic interventions.

FDA-Cleared Indications

  • Embolization procedures intended to occlude blood vessels.
  • Use in patients for whom targeted vascular occlusion is clinically indicated.

Clinical Applications

  • Catheter-directed embolization of selected blood vessels.
  • Treatment of vascular abnormalities requiring controlled vessel occlusion.
  • Reduction or interruption of blood flow to a targeted vascular territory.

Reported off-label uses

  • Embolization of hypervascular tumors in clinical situations not specifically described in the available FDA indication text.
  • Embolization of arteriovenous malformations when the specific anatomy or clinical indication is outside the product labeling.

Off-label use: these uses are reported in practice or the literature but are not part of the FDA-cleared indications. Physicians may use a cleared device off-label based on their medical judgment; the manufacturer may not promote off-label uses.

Practical Considerations

  • The available record does not provide the device's labeled microsphere size range; clinicians should confirm particle sizes and the intended vascular territory in the current instructions for use.
  • The microspheres must be compatible with the selected delivery catheter and prepared and administered according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Embolization requires image guidance and specialized training to reduce the risk of non-target embolization, vessel injury and ischemia.
  • MRI safety information is not provided in the supplied FDA record; review the current labeling before MRI.
  • Contraindications, warnings and precautions should be taken from the current manufacturer labeling rather than inferred from the product category.
