São Paulo, Brazil—Minos™ Abdominal Aortic Stent-Graft and Delivery System (“Minos™ Stent Graft System”), a product developed by Shanghai MicroPort Endovascular MedTech(Group) Co., Ltd. (“Endovastec™”), was used in Brazil for the first time in a recently completed case. This marks the tenth overseas market that the Minos® Stent Graft System has entered, after Greece, Poland, Spain, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Argentina, Croatia and Hungary.

The procedure was performed by a surgical team led by Dr. Victor Maia and Dr. Guilherme Meirelles of the Samaritano Paulista Hospital. The patient was admitted to the hospital because of a sudden onset of intense pain. Preoperative angiography showed a challenging abdominal aortic aneurysm over 5 cm in diameter involving the superior mesenteric artery and  the access artery is very tortuous. After discussion, the surgical team selected the Minos™ Stent Graft System for placement across the superior mesenteric artery and used the Chimney technique to reconstruct the superior mesenteric artery and the left and right renal arteries. Postoperative angiography showed an effectively isolated aneurysm, and the stent graft was well conformed to the patient’s anatomy, the blood flow in the branch stent was patent, which indicated a successful operation. The doctor commented that, “It is the outstanding performance of Minos™ that made the procedure a success. The ultra-low profile delivery sheath of Minos™ is able to smoothly pass through the patient’s tortuous iliac artery. In addition, the sense of control of the delivery system is excellent and the procedure is very smooth. ”
