Created for patients and designed for laryngologists, the Hercules® 100 is the first balloon for transnasal esophageal (TNE) strictures.
With a transnasal indication and a 100 cm catheter length that is comparable to most transnasal endoscopes, this device was created to meet the specific needs of laryngologists and the transnasal esophagoscopy (TNE) procedures they perform. The proven three-stage transnasal esophageal balloon technology and P.E.T. Flex™ material offers the strength and flexibility necessary to ensure accurate dilations.
Clinicians seeking dependable dilation solutions benefit from devices engineered for both accuracy and patient comfort. The Hercules® 100 transnasal esophageal balloon offers a less invasive approach, allowing for effective treatment without the need for sedation in many cases. Its streamlined design supports smooth insertion and controlled inflation, helping practitioners address strictures with confidence. Built for consistency and ease of use, this technology enhances procedural efficiency while maintaining a strong focus on patient-centered care in outpatient and clinical settings.
With high strength, reliability, and flexibility, the Hercules® 100 ensures accurate dilations without conforming strictures.
Dilations can be performed in-office, which can aid in reducing post-procedure recovery times, complications, and costs.
The Hercules® 100 was created to meet the needs of ENTs and the transnasal esophagoscopy procedures they perform.
– Provide controlled radial dilation
– Used with Transnasal Endoscopes to provide visualization during the procedure
– Not compatible with transnasal endoscopes
– Esophageal Perforation is associated with the blind passage of dilators
– Increased chance of the shearing effects that result from bougies
Go from the OR to the office. The Hercules 100 Transnasal Esophageal Balloon is the first balloon designed for transnasal esophageal procedures, which allow for in-office treatment.
