The Hood Y Stent is designed to relieve airway complications such as anastomosis and stenosis following lung transplant. The stent may also be used to minimize chronic bronchial strictures due to tuberculosis and malignancies.
Inserted endoscopically, the specially designed bifurcated tracheobronchial tube fits snugly into the distal trachea, the carina and proximal bronchi.
Fabricated of flexible, biocompatible, medical-grade silicone, the Y stent allows normal humidification and phonation.
- Aids in short-term management of airway obstructions after lung transplants, tuberculosis, malignancies
- Enables normal breathing and speech
- Permits healing and prevents desiccation
- Biocompatible implant-grade silicone
- Y-angle anatomically designed to fit carina
