Each year thousands of lives are threatened by deadly aortic aneurysms. Although an aneurysm can occur in any artery of the body, it is most common in the abdominal aorta. Gore offers catheter-based treatment options for minimally-invasive endovascular aneurysm repair.

Endovascular repair, which is less invasive than open surgery, involves relining the aorta to exclude (seal off) the aneurysm by placing an endovascular graft inside the diseased portion of aorta.

The GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis and the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis are devices that allow for endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.

The GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis is used in conjunction with the GORE® EXCLUDER® Devices and allows for endovascular repair of aortoiliac aneurysms and common iliac artery aneurysms.

With durable outcomes, more than 25 years of EVAR experience and the first FDA-approved iliac branch solution, the GORE® EXCLUDER® Device family offers solutions physicians trust and patients count on.

    GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis  

    INDICATIONS FOR USE IN THE U.S.: Trunk-Ipsilateral Leg and Contralateral Leg Endoprosthesis. The GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis is intended to exclude the aneurysm from the blood circulation in patients diagnosed with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) disease and who have appropriate anatomy as described below: Adequate iliac/femoral access; Infrarenal aortic neck treatment diameter range of 19–32 mm and a minimum aortic neck length of 15 mm; Proximal aortic neck angulation ≤ 60°; Iliac artery treatment diameter range of 8–25 mm and iliac distal vessel seal zone length of at least 10 mm. Aortic Extender and Iliac Extender Endoprosthesis. The Aortic and Iliac Extender Endoprostheses are intended to be used after deployment of the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis. These extensions are intended to be used when additional length and/or sealing for aneurysmal exclusion is desired.  

    CONTRAINDICATIONS: The GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis is contraindicated in: patients with known sensitivities or allergies to the device materials; patients with a systemic infection who may be at increased risk of endovascular graft infection. 

    GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis  

    INDICATIONS FOR USE IN THE U.S.: The GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis is intended to exclude the aneurysm from the blood circulation and patients diagnosed with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) disease and who have appropriate anatomy as described below: Adequate iliac/femoral access; Infrarenal aortic neck treatment diameter range of 16-32 mm and a minimum aortic neck length of 15 mm; Proximal aortic neck angulation ≤ 60°; Iliac artery treatment diameter range of 8-25 mm and iliac distal vessel seal zone length of at least 10 mm. The GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable Aortic Extender Endoprosthesis (Aortic Extender) is intended to be used after deployment of the GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable Trunk-Ipsilateral Leg Component. The Aortic Extender is to be used when additional length and/or sealing for aneurysmal exclusion is desired.  

    CONTRAINDICATIONS: The GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis is contraindicated in: patients with known sensitivities to allergies to the device materials. Patients with systemic infection who may be at increased risk of endovascular graft infection. 

    GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis (IBE)  

    INDICATIONS FOR USE IN THE U.S.: Iliac Branch and Internal Iliac Components. The GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis (IBE) is intended to be used with the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis or the GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable Endoprosthesis to isolate the common iliac artery from systemic blood flow and preserve blood flow in the external iliac and internal iliac arteries in patients with a common iliac or aortoiliac aneurysm, who have appropriate anatomy, including: Adequate iliac/femoral access; Minimum common iliac diameter of 17 mm at the proximal implantation zone of the IBE; External Iliac artery treatment diameter range of 6.5–25 mm and seal zone length of at least 10 mm; Internal iliac artery treatment diameter range of 6.5–13.5 mm and seal zone length of at least 10 mm; Adequate length from the lowest major renal artery to the internal iliac artery to accommodate the total endoprosthesis length, calculated by adding the minimum lengths of required components, taking into account appropriate overlaps between components. GORE® EXCLUDER® Components used in conjunction with GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis: Trunk-Ipsilateral Leg Component. The Trunk-Ipsilateral Leg is intended to provide proximal seal and fixation for the endovascular repair of the aneurysm. For more information on the Trunk-Ipsilateral Leg Component indications for use and deployment, see the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis or the GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable Endoprosthesis Instructions for Use. Contralateral Leg Endoprosthesis Component. The Contralateral Leg Endoprosthesis is intended to bridge the GORE® EXCLUDER® Device Trunk-Ipsilateral Component to the GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis following deployment of the GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis. Additionally, the Contralateral Leg Endoprosthesis is intended to be used for distal extension of the Iliac Branch Component in the external iliac artery. The Iliac Branch Component can treat external iliac artery diameters up to 13.5 mm. This ability to extend the Iliac Branch Component distally with any Contralateral Leg Endoprosthesis expands the external iliac artery treatment range up to 25 mm. For more information on the Trunk-Ipsilateral Leg and Contralateral Leg Endoprosthesis Component indications for use and deployment, see the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis Instructions for Use. Aortic Extender and Iliac Extender Components. The Aortic and Iliac Extender Components can be used after deployment of the GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch and GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprostheses or the GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable Endoprosthesis. These extensions are used when additional length and/or sealing for aneurysmal exclusion is desired. For more information on Aortic Extender and Iliac Extender indications for use and deployment, see the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis or the GORE® EXCLUDER® Conformable Endoprosthesis Instructions for Use.  

    CONTRAINDICATIONS: The GORE® EXCLUDER® Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis is contraindicated in: patients with known sensitivities or allergies to the device materials.
