CryoVein®
SAPHENOUS VEIN
The Natural Choice for
Vascular Reconstruction.
Product Highlights
- The ideal solution for bypass below the knee in patients at risk of infection.1
- Easy to suture with superior handling characteristics compared to PTFE grafts.2
- Natural suturability and natural pulsatile flow to treat patients with Critical Limb Ischemia.2-3
Product Overview
1. Superior Quality
Artivion significantly exceeds FDA and AATB donor rejection criteria standards to benefit patient care and outcomes.1,2 Strict criteria standards and Artivion’s proprietary tissue processing provide superior quality allografts.
2. Exceptional Durability
CryoVein Saphenous Vein demonstrates exceptional durability for peripheral bypass with 1-year primary patency up to 87%.3
The majority of the patients we are treating are infrapopliteal because of all of the endovascular treatments. Usually, for above-the-knee patients, we provide endovascular treatments first and perform bypass only when these fail, so the majority of the patients we see are coming in for leg bypass. A lot of these patients are sick, and they have end-stage renal disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Often times do not have adequate autologous vein, or the vein was already used for a coronary artery bypass graft or other procedures. In these patients, I use CryoVein.
Clinical Evidence
The Natural Choice for Vascular Reconstruction
CryoVein Saphenous Vein is the ideal solution for below-knee revascularization in patients with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI), patients with ulcers >2cm, or those without suitable autologous tissue for bypass.1 CryoVein Saphenous Vein demonstrates high limb salvage rates up to 70% at 4 years.1-5
