ALN Implants chirurgicaux

The ALN Optional vena cava filters : Permanent and/or Temporary

An exclusive innovation in 1991, recognized for its efficiency and reliability, our first permanent vena cava filter became optional in 2001. Throughout our history, guided by a constant desire to provide targeted solutions to the major public health problem of the pulmonary embolism, we have become a benchmark in the market. Our expertise, which has been recognized for many years, is focused on the manufacturing and distribution of vena cava filters and removal and/or repositioning kits.

In 2001 the ALN filter became the first optional vena cava filter, then 12 years later (2013) we created the vena cava filter with a hook.

The ALN optional vena cava filter permanent and/or temporary , with and without a hook, is now one of the answers chosen by public or private health facilities worldwide, to prevent pulmonary embolisms.

With ALN filter with hook, access an additional removal option

ALN vena cava filters with hook are permanent and/or temporary, which means that if indicated, you can remove the filter with a hook through one of our 3 removal and/or repositioning kits and/or with a lasso.

One of the advantages of the vena cava filter with a hook is indeed the possibility of a withdrawal with a lasso. Note that the range of ALN filters has been enriched since 2013 with this model of vena cava filters with hook, without however the original design of the filter is modified.
