The TRUFILL® DCS Detachable Coil System is intended for embolizing certain intracranial aneurysms that - because of their morphology, their location, or the patient’s general medical condition — are considered by the
treating neurosurgical team to be:
a) very high risk for management by traditional operative techniques, or,
b) inoperable,
and for embolizing other vascular malformations such as arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae
of the neurovasculature.
The TRUFILL® DCS Detachable Coil System is also intended for arterial and venous embolizations in the
peripheral vasculature.
The TRUFILL® DCS Detachable Syringe is indicated for use with the TRUFILL® DCS Detachable Coil.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
