Steroid eluting sinus stent
(Redirected from Propel mometasone furoate implant)
Steroid-eluting sinus stents may be used in addition to endoscopic sinus surgery. They are, however, of unclear benefit as of 2015.[1]
One version releases mometasone furoate. It is a bioabsorbable steroid-eluting stent. It delivers steroids over a 30-day period prior to dissolving.[2]
Society and culture
[edit]A number of brands exist including Relieva Stratus Spacer and Propel sinus implant.[3][4]
Approval
[edit]One brand received pre-market approval from the FDA in 2011.
