Summary
Brief summary
This post market registry consists of a retrospective and a prospective part. The first part is a retrospective registry of all implanted IBE devices of Gore in the Netherlands after CE mark was obtained, to get an initial insight on the feasibility and safety of this procedure. The second part is to prospectively register all data on implanted IBE Gore devices, in order to gain more robust data on the efficacy of the device in maintaining hypogastric artery patency.
