摘要:
Systems and methods for deploying stents within bifurcated vessels in a true pantaloons configuration (Kamat technique) are disclosed. A device including a balloon catheter and a stent surrounding the catheter is inserted into a bifurcated blood vessel. The catheter includes a first lumen configured to accept a first guide wire, which exits the device at a distal end. The device is advanced within a main branch using the first guide wire until it reaches the carina, thus causing the second guide wire to enter a second side branch. The second wire exits the device at a tapered edge of the catheter from under the stent. The stent may then be deployed within the main branch. The stent may then be splayed across the carina with kissing balloons and the procedure may be completed with the kissing balloon deployment of two stents accurately at the carina in each side branch.

A self-expanding main vessel stent-graft includes a trunk portion configured for placement within the abdominal aorta and a bifurcated portion configured for placement above the aortic bifurcation of the common iliac arteries. The trunk portion includes a proximal end section having an anchor stent and a seal stent that accommodates a scallop or open-top fenestration; a suprarenal body section having at least one stent of variable stiffness to accommodate branch vessel prosthesis deployed alongside the main vessel stent-graft; a branch connection section having opposing couplings for connecting the main vessel stent-graft to branch vessel prostheses deployed within the renal arteries; an infrarenal body section having at least one stent of uniform stiffness; and a transition section for transitioning into the bifurcated portion. The main vessel stent-graft is configured to treat short-neck infrarenal, juxtarenal, and/or suprarenal aneurysms in a wide range of patient anatomies.

The present invention is directed to a device comprising a catheter tube, which includes a round opening and two platinum radio-opaque markers on its distal end; a guide-wire; a balloon, which includes a wedge-shaped opening; and a stent, which includes an elliptical-shaped opening and three platinum radio-opaque markers. The invention is also directed to methods for using the device for deploying stents to treat bifurcation lesions.
摘要:
A device for treating disease along a main vessel and at least one branch vessel extending from the main vessel includes a branch member for deployment in the branch vessel, the branch member having a branch lumen; and a main body for deployment in the main vessel. The main body has a generally tubular wall extending generally longitudinally between opposite first and second ends. The wall has an internal surface defining a main lumen and an opposite outer surface. The wall has a recessed portion that is recessed relative to the outer surface of the wall and positioned between the first and second ends of the main body. The main body has an opening formed in the recessed portion of the wall for receiving the branch member therethrough such that the branch lumen is in fluid communication with the main lumen.
摘要:
A stent graft (1) including a tubular wall (3) with at least one fenestration (40) including a peripheral (37) reinforcement around at least part of the fenestration. There can also be a tubular extension (15). The side arm includes a stent (19) and a cover (17) and extends from and is in fluid communication with the fenestration and the stent graft. The stent may be a self expanding stent. The ring and/or tubular extension provides better support and sealing for an extension arm. The fenestration (40) can be circular or if towards the ends of the stent graft may be in the form of a U-shape (50) with an open end.
摘要:
A multiple-component expandable endoluminal system for treating a lesion at a bifurcation including a self expandable tubular root member having a side-looking engagement aperture, a self expandable tubular trunk member comprising a substantially blood impervious polymeric liner secured therealong; both having a radially compressed state adapted for percutaneous intraluminal delivery and a radially expanded state adapted for endoluminal support.
摘要:
A stent graft is disclosed. The stent graft includes a body portion having a sidewall and an opening at the top. The top of the sidewall is configured and arranged to engage a wall of an aorta above an aneurysmal site of a patient. An ipsilateral limb descends from the body portion. The ipsilateral limb is configured and arranged to descend into one of an iliac arteries. The stent graft further includes a contralateral gate that has a flared opening. The contralateral gate is configured and arranged to align with the other of the iliac arteries.
摘要:
The present embodiments provide a branch vessel prosthesis for placement at least partially between a main vessel and a branch vessel of a patient. The branch vessel prosthesis has a graft including a generally tubular body of a biocompatible material. At least one stent is coupled to a proximal region of the graft, and at least one stent is coupled to a distal region of the graft. The proximal region of the graft includes a generally straight configuration in an expanded deployed state that is substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of a main vessel. The distal region of the graft includes a generally straight configuration in the expanded deployed state that is substantially parallel to a branch vessel. A curvature of a central region varies an angle in which the distal region of the graft is disposed relative to the proximal region.

A graft for facilitating treatment of a deformity in a blood vessel wall includes a tubular body defining a first end and an opposing second end. At least a portion of the tubular body includes a super-absorbent material integrated into the tubular body and configured to expand upon exposure to moisture.
