Allium Medical Solutions Ltd., which specializes in minimally invasive technologies providing to large markets innovative solutions for clinical needs that are not adequately addressed, announced today that its urological stents received CE Mark for a new indication for treating urethral fistula after a successful trial.<\/strong><\/p>\n

An ureteral fistula is caused by injury during surgery or through trauma leading to the leakage of urine to the abdominal cavity. Currently this condition is treated by surgery (suturing the tear), or by implanting a plastic implant which yields low efficacy. Both of those methods result in the growth of ill-defined scar tissue which increases the chances of strictures after the healing process is completed.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the Allium stents\u2019 unique structure (nitinol alloy covered with a bio-compatible polymer) which helps the body grow a scar tissue layer in the inner circumference of the ureter while maintaining its diameter), success rates of treating ureteral fistula with the stents are very high. The CE Mark was approved based on a retrospective multicenter study that was carried out in medical centers in Germany (the Charit\u00e9 Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin medical center \u2013 one of the largest hospitals in Europe and among the most prominent medical centers in Europe and globally) \u2013 and in Italy (in the Rome INI clinic). As part of the study, the Company\u2019s stents were implanted in 47 patients and the success rate was 92%.<\/p>\n

In the opinion of the Company, receiving the CE Mark for the new indication constitutes a significant stage in proving the stents\u2019 efficacy as an implant triggering cell generation and healing of damaged areas in the ureter and the urethra.<\/p>\n

Ariel Rubashkin, CEO of Allium Medical Solutions: \u201cWe continue selling our existing product lines and working to expand the Company\u2019s target markets. The CE Mark was received after a successful clinical trial which proves again the value of Allium Medical\u2019s unique stents technology. Allium will act to leverage its geographic distribution and international network of distributors and sell its urological stents to treat this new indication as early as the current quarter<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n
