CARLSBAD, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 11, 2015 / ArtVentive Medical Group, Inc. (OTCBB:AVTD) announced today that the Company’s Endoluminal Occlusion System (EOS(TM)) was featured in a presentation at the recent European Vascular Conference (EVC) in Maastricht, the Netherlands.

Dr. Krzysztof Pyra, Interventional Radiologist at the University Hospital in Lublin, Poland presented on behalf of Professor Malgorzata Szczerbo-Trojanowska and their team, the results of their initial clinical experience with the ArtVentive EOS(TM) device in the Innovative Techniques session held on Tuesday, March 10th at the EVC conference. Dr. Pyra outlined the team’s experience in using the EOS(TM) device during the treatment of pelvic congestion syndrome and varicocele.

“I am very pleased with the performance of the EOS(TM) device and we have used it in over twenty venous occlusion cases,” stated Dr. Pyra. “The immediate occlusion upon deployment provides the operator with confidence, and the ability to inject contrast through the EOS(TM) delivery catheter enhances visualization for accurate placement and deployment of the device.”

The dissemination of clinical experience information, coupled with our training workshops, promotes awareness of the unique design and clinical benefits of the EOS(TM) platform.
