12/22/2010 6:47:43 AM
EATONTOWN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Flexible Stenting Solutions, Inc. (“FSS”), a leading developer of next generation peripheral arterial, venous, neurovascular and biliary stents, announced today that it has received 510(k) clearance for an improved FlexStent® Biliary Self Expanding Stent Delivery System and an expansion of Biliary stent sizes.
The FlexStent® Biliary Self Expanding Stent System is indicated for the palliative treatment of biliary strictures resulting from malignant neoplasms. Expansion of the FlexStent® Biliary Stent size range provides the physician with additional options in the treatment of these strictures.

Ms. Burpee further stated that “The modified FlexStent® Biliary Stent Delivery System has been designed for improved manufacturing and lower stent deployment force. FSS’s goal is to simplify the procedure so the physician can focus on the patient.”
