Cook Medical today commercially launched its Hercules 100 Transnasal Esophageal Balloon in the U.S.
The balloon is designed specifically for trans nasal esophageal procedures and is another tool for ENT physicians to help treat esophageal strictures.
“This balloon was specifically designed with ENT physicians and their patients in mind. The balloon is much shorter than what is currently on the market, and it’s tailored to the scope that ENTs commonly use, as well as the patient anatomy they treat,” Thomas Cherry, director of Cook Medical’s otolaryngology, said in a news release.
