Device type (GMDN): Peripheral artery endovascular stent-graft, non-medicated

A non-bioabsorbable tubular device intended to be implanted in a peripheral artery (excludes aorta, coronary, pulmonary, and intracranial arteries) to maintain patency and improve luminal diameter, typically in patients with symptomatic peripheral vascular disease or following the recanalization of a total occlusion. It may be intended for implantation in an artery adjacent to the aorta (e.g., iliac, renal), however it is not a dedicated component of an aortoiliac stent-graft assembly; it may additionally be intended for venous implantation. It is a metallic mesh-like structure with a synthetic polymer tube (endovascular graft); it does not include pharmaceuticals.
