FORTÉ^® PLUS DEFLECTING RENAL ACCESS SHEATH

Unparalleled Access to the Lower Pole

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Applied Forté^® Plus deflecting renal access sheath provides a continuous working channel, simplifying ureteroscopic procedures. The Forté sheaths are clinically proven to reduce O.R. time, eliminate the need for balloon dilators and aid in washing out stone fragments^1,2,3. The Forté Plus sheath provides continual access to the calices of the kidney by the use of a simple mechanism that provides up to 180° deflection. It resists kinking even in the most tortuous anatomy.
