Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to the field of medical devices. In particular, the present disclosure relates to medical devices for facilitating the flow of fluids and materials in and/or between adjacent body lumens, for example, a stent which maintains an open flow passage between body lumens. In one example, a stent may have a constrained configuration and an expanded configuration.
