Tracheobronxane™ Dumon® BD / BO / CB
The Tracheobronxane™ Dumon® BD/BO and CB stents are perfectly adapted to bronchial indications (main bronchus and bronchus intermedius) and can, in certain cases, be placed in the lobar bronchus.
They facilitate mucociliary clearance while allowing optimal ventilation of the bronchi.
Due to its special material, the Tracheobronxane™ Dumon® stent maintains its shape and resists external compression1) despite its wall thickness of only 1 mm.

- BD
Dumon® BD stents have been developed for bronchial indications. The stent sizes correspond to the smaller bronchi diameters and ensure optimal ventilation of the patient.
- BO
Dumon® BO stents have bevelled ends in order to facilitate ventilation of the upper lobar bronchus. They are used to reinforce the endobronchial walls ensuring collateral ventilation.
- CB
Dumon® CB stents have a collar ring which permits placement in the bifurcation. CB stents allow treatment of indications of the main bronchus close to the carina and limit covering healthy mucosa. In certain cases they may be used instead of Y-stents.
