Provide transmural fixation of the endograft to the aorta with the Heli-FX™ EndoAnchor™ system. The Heli-FX EndoAnchor system enhances durability to the level of a surgical anastomosis and addresses concerns for future complications. One year data shows decreased neck dilatation, decreased Type Ia endoleak rates, and a significant increase in sac regression.1
INDICATIONS
The Heli-FX™ EndoAnchor™ System is intended to provide fixation and sealing between endovascular aortic grafts and the native artery. The Heli-FX EndoAnchor System is indicated for use in patients whose endovascular grafts have exhibited migration or endoleak, or are at risk of such complications, in whom augmented radial fixation and/or sealing is required to regain or maintain adequate aneurysm exclusion. The EndoAnchor implant may be implanted at the time of the initial endograft placement, or during a secondary (i.e. repair) procedure.
PRODUCT DETAILS
We offer two independent securement systems for EVAR and TEVAR procedures—the Heli-FX EndoAnchor system and the Heli-FX Thoracic EndoAnchor system.
Features
Enhance Outcomes and Durability*
Helical EndoAnchor implants provide the stability of a surgical anastomosis.2
The Heli-FX EndoAnchor implant is contraindicated with Endologix AFX™* stent grafts and does not have established compatibility with other stent grafts not listed above.

One Year Propensity Matched Comparison of EVAR in Hostile Neck Patients with and without EndoAnchors, presentation by Bart Muhs, MD, Veith 2016. Corelab was used to measure aneurysm diameters: dilatation was defined as the difference between 1-month and 12-month aortic neck diameters post-procedure.
