The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter is intended to assist in the delivery of diagnostic agents (such as contrast media), therapeutic agents, and non-liquid interventional devices (such as stents) that are indicated for use in the neurovasculature and with a catheter of 0.027 inches in inner diameter.
Device Story
Sterile, single-lumen microcatheter; 0.027-inch ID; used by physicians to access distal neurovasculature. Operates via tracking over steerable guidewires within a guide catheter. Features graded shaft stiffness and Hydrolene outer coating to reduce friction. Includes radiopaque tip marker for fluoroscopic visualization. Available in 135cm/150cm lengths with straight or pre-shaped tips. Physician uses luer fitting to attach accessories; performs steam shaping as needed. Facilitates delivery of contrast media, therapeutic agents, and stents. Benefits patient by enabling precise navigation to distal neurovascular sites for diagnostic or interventional procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included visual inspection, dimensional measurements, corrosion resistance, simulated use (introduction, tracking, deployment, detachment), advancement/retraction force, and comprehensive biocompatibility (cytotoxicity, irritation, systemic toxicity, sensitization, hemocompatibility, pyrogenicity). All results met pre-defined acceptance criteria equivalent to predicate devices.
Indicated for patients requiring delivery of diagnostic or therapeutic agents and non-liquid interventional devices (e.g., stents) into the neurovasculature using a 0.027-inch inner diameter catheter.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A percutaneous catheter is a device that is introduced into a vein or artery through the skin using a dilator and a sheath (introducer) or guide wire.

| Trade Name: | Excelsior® XT-27™ Microcatheter |
|-------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Generic Name: | Percutaneous Catheter, Microcatheter |
| Classification: | CLASS II, 21 CFR 870.1250 |
| Submitted By: | Stryker Neurovascular<br>47900 Bayside Parkway<br>Fremont, CA 94538-6515 |
| Contact: | Yoko Y Enrile |
| Predicate Device: | K000177, Renegade™ Hi-Flo™ Microcatheter<br>K042568, Excelsior® SL-10 Pre-Shaped Microcatheter |
Indications for Use: The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter is intended to assist in the delivery of
diagnostic agents (such as contrast media), therapeutic agents, and non-
liquid interventional devices (such as stents) that are indicated for use in
the neurovasculature and with a catheter of 0.027 inches in inner diameter.
Device Description: The Excelsior® XT-27™ Microcatheter is a sterile, single lumen 0.027 in
ID device with one tip marker designed to aid the physician in accessing
distal vasculature when used with a guide catheter and steerable
guidewire. Graded shaft stiffness ranging from a highly flexible tip to a
semi-rigid proximal section aids the physician in tracking over selectively
placed guidewires. A luer fitting located on the microcatheter hub is used
for the attachment of accessories. One radiopaque tip marker is positioned
at the distal tip of the device to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization. The
Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter is coated on the outer surface with
Hydrolene™ coating which reduces friction during manipulation in the
vessel.
The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheters are available in effective lengths of
both 135cm (53.1 inch) and 150 cm (59.1 inch), with two distal shaft
configurations achieved through distal shaft lengths of 6 cm (XT-27
model) and 18 cm (XT-27 Flex model). Both straight tip and Pre-Shaped
versions are available.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Accessories: Each Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter is provided with accessories (a shaping mandrel, and peel away introducer) within a separate inner Tyvek™ pouch (Accessory pouch). The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter is available in a single pack (one unit per package) only. The device pouch and Directions for Use (DFU) are both provided inside a shelf carton.
Summary Differences in Technological Characteristics: The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheters introduce several enhanced design features:
- a) The OD profile of the Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter is smaller than the Renegade Hi-Flo Microcatheter.
- b) The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter has up to five zones of polymer stiffness which vary from the distal to proximal shaft and help to enhance the trackability and pushability of the catheter.
- c) The Excelsior XT-27 Microcatheter has a more supportive double helix winding reinforcement compared to the Renegade Hi-Flo Microcatheter.
