What is the Ancure Endograft System?

Ancure is the registered name for a "stent-graft" devicen used to repair abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) without traditional open-chest surgical techniques.

The Ancure device, which is part of the "Ancure Endograft System," which uses a catheter to insert a sheath through the femoral artery in the leg.

The device is manufactured by Endovascular Technologies of Menlo Park, California, a subsidiary of Indianapolis-based Guidant Corporation.

What is the Problem?

Guidant has agreed to plead guilty to 10 felony counts of concealing that its ancure product prevents aneurysms [Ancure Endoraft] and failed in thousands of patients, including 12 who died.

Guidant will also pay $92.4 million, a record penalty for failing to report malfunctions to regulators.

Investigators found 2,628 cases of unreported malfunctions, which led to the deaths and 57 surgeries to correct complications.
