Our heritage 

Cook Medical’s heritage of innovation began decades ago in 1963 when our founder, Bill Cook, developed the fine art of listening—listening to physicians and identifying what they needed to get patients back to living better lives.

Our heritage of collaborating with physician pioneers has led to a legacy of creative, durability-by-design product development in the aortic clinical specialty.

Aortic disease

Aortic disease is currently an incurable, progressive condition with many complexities, which, left untreated, could be life threatening. Since its inception, Cook Medical has been dedicated to providing a complete aortic therapies program, offering a portfolio of endovascular products and services that assist physicians in the management of aortic disease.

Aortic aneurysm 

The aorta is the main blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. An aortic aneurysm occurs when a section of the aorta weakens and begins to bulge. This bulge in the aorta is called an aneurysm. An aneurysm can get larger over time as the walls of the aorta become thinner and stretch like a balloon. When an aneurysm occurs in the part of the aorta that runs through the abdomen, it is called an abdominal aortic aneurysm. When an aneurysm occurs in the part of the aorta that runs through the chest, it is called a thoracic aortic aneurysm. Learn more about the causes, symptoms, and treatment options of aortic aneurysms here.
