GORE VIABIL Biliary Endoprosthesis

by W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc.

A non-bioabsorbable tubular device intended to be implanted in an obstructed biliary duct (e.g., common bile duct) to maintain luminal patency. It is a mesh structure made of metal which is covered/lined with a synthetic polymer material (e.g., silicone) that prevents lateral flow and tissue ingrowth and facilitates removability. It is typically expanded in situ (e.g., with a balloon catheter or self-expands) and disposable devices intended to assist implantation may be included.
