Cook Ultraxx Nephrostomy Balloon Set G46036
The Ultraxx Nephrostomy Balloon Set G46036 is a sterile balloon catheter kit designed to create a percutaneous nephrostomy tract for kidney access. It includes a balloon catheter, a sheath, and an inflation device for tract dilation. The balloon is radiopaque so clinicians can see its position under imaging.
This set is used during percutaneous kidney procedures to dilate the musculofascial tract, renal capsule, and parenchyma, establishing a safe access path to the renal collecting system. The balloon’s short tapered tip helps bring the dilating tract close to the surgical site — useful especially when treating difficult or impacted calyceal stones. Radiopaque platinum bands on the balloon enable precise positioning under X-ray or fluoroscopy before dilation. The balloon’s high rated burst pressure ensures reliable tract dilation, and the kit’s components (sheath, catheter, inflator) make it a ready-to-use, single-use set.
