Plan for the best – Insure against the worst
Bone marrow derived EPCs

Genous with anti-hCD34

EPCs mature into endothelial cells, healing the artery with restored endothelium. |
Design Matters
The Genous Bio-engineered Cobalt Chromium Stent has a unique dual helix design that provides natural conformability and tremendous radial strength without compromising its extreme flexibility.
Squared Ends
– for lesion coverage and minimal foreshortening
Dual Helix Backbone
– for flexibility, radial strength and natural conformability
Sinusoidal Rings
– for scaffolding, coverage, and support
Unsurpassed Sidebranchability
Up to 4.5 mm side branch access for effective bifurcation stenting and for maintaining patency of side branches.
Material Matters
The Genous CoCr stent is made from the L605 cobalt chromium alloy, which has no molybdenum and less nickel than 316L stainless steel and MP35N cobalt chromium alloy. Some patients are allergic to both nickel and molybdenum and can develop restenosis as a result.1

Thinner is Better
Thinner stent struts are better, as long as radial force is not compromised. Thinner metal results in a lower profile, greater flexibility, and reduced restenosis.2
