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.
