BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company), a leading global medical technology company, announced it has obtained CE Marking for the Revello Vascular Covered Stent, a next-generation endovascular solution for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in the common and external iliac arteries. This advancement arrives at a pivotal moment, as lower‑extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD), which includes iliac artery disease, is a key component that drives a substantial disability burden across the EU's ageing population. The Revello Vascular Covered Stent is designed to combine the flexibility of a nitinol self-expanding stent with the radial resistive force tailored for the iliac arteries.

"The CE Marking of the Revello Stent is a significant advancement towards helping physicians treating complex iliac artery disease," said Rima Alameddine, worldwide president, BD Interventional – Peripheral Intervention. "The Revello Vascular Covered Stent was built to raise the standard of iliac artery revascularisation, expand the growing BD peripheral vascular portfolio and reinforce the company's commitment to delivering clinically relevant innovation for physicians treating complex PAD across the EU and EEA countries."

The Revello Stent is a self-expanding stent with an ultrathin expanded polytetrafluoroethylene covering, designed to help keep iliac arteries open while conforming to vessel anatomy. This is supported by its compliant stent ends that are designed to help reduce the risk of trauma to healthy vessel segments. For placement accuracy, the stent features tantalum radiopaque markers, enabling clear visualisation under fluoroscopy—even in challenging anatomy.

The Revello Stent is delivered via a tri-axial delivery system designed for controlled deployment and accurate placement. The system includes an atraumatic tip for smooth insertion, a stability sheath for smooth and precise delivery, and a thumbwheel that provides intuitive control and precise adjustments during deployment. Available in a wide range of sizes, the Revello Stent offers more diameters on a lower profile platform compared to self-expanding iliac artery stents in the European market, which can help reduce the risk of access site complications. Multiple catheter length options further support procedural versatility.
