VENOVO Venous Stent System Recalled for Deployment Malfunction
The FDA is recalling VENOVO Venous Stent System units due to reports that the proximal end may fail to expand immediately upon deployment and remain connected to the delivery catheter.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II classification combined with a device malfunction (improper stent expansion and deployment failure) creates risk-of-harm. No illnesses or injuries are reported in the source text, placing this in the High category rather than Severe.
