Kerberos Proximal Solutions

Kerberos Proximal Solutions was a medical device company based in Mountain View, California, that focused on developing innovative solutions for vascular intervention. The company's primary product was the Rinspiration System, a multi-functional catheter system designed for the removal of thrombus and the provision of embolic protection during peripheral vascular procedures. This system utilized a unique combination of irrigation and aspiration to clear blockages while minimizing the risk of distal embolization. Kerberos's technology was specifically designed to complement existing atherectomy treatments, improving safety and efficacy for patients with complex arterial disease. In August 2006, the company was acquired by FoxHollow Technologies for $32 million in cash, plus additional milestone-based considerations.
