endovastec™ receives approval for the minos™ abdominal aortic stent-云顶国际

on may 17, 2023, shanghai microport endovascular medtech (group) co., ltd. (referred to as "endovastec™") received registration approval from the health sciences authority of singapore for its minostm abdominal aortic stent-graft and delivery system (hereafter referred to as "minos™ stent-graft system"). this is endovastec™’s second product to be approved and launched in singapore, following the herculestm thoracic stent graft with low profile delivery system. the minostm stent-graft system was initially launched in china in 2019 and obtained the ce certification of the european union in the same year. it has been clinically used in 14 overseas countries, including greece, the united kingdom, poland, germany, brazil, and argentina.

the minostm stent-graft system is designed for the endovascular treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. it represents endovastec™'s next-generation abdominal aortic stent graft system and is the first domestically produced product with a delivery sheath outer diameter reduced to 14f, significantly lowering the requirements for vascular access during surgery. the stent structure utilizes a tri-modular design, enabling flexible in-situ assembly to achieve greater coverage of the diseased area. furthermore, its design features – such as the laser cut bare stent with barbs, seamless multifilament graft, multi-mini springs at the proximal end of the main stent and a branch stent woven from a single filament – can meet the treatment needs of more abdominal aortic aneurysms with complex anatomical morphology. this reduces the incidence of common complications such as stent migration, endoleak, and branch stent occlusion, thereby lowering the risk of secondary interventions in the long term while ensuring long-term stability of the stent. the minos™ stent-graft system possesses unique advantages in treating complex abdominal aortic aneurysms, especially in cases with twisted or short necks and narrow access arteries.

the registration approval of the minos™ stent-graft system in singapore will benefit more patients with aortic diseases in the region. endovastec™ will continue to promote its high-quality innovative products in more countries worldwide, improving well-being for patients with circulatory diseases globally.
