    摘要: A stent graft for deployment in a curved lumen such as the aortic or thoracic arch comprises a constraining mechanism at its proximal end. A stent provided at the proximal end of the stent graft includes loops of material that co-operate with restraining wires that extend between a central guide wire carrier and a restraining wire cannula. The constraining mechanism acts to maintain the proximal stent constrained at both the proximal and distal ends of the proximal stent. The proximal stent is thus allowed to expand after expansion of the remainder of the stent graft during deployment. In an embodiment, the constraining mechanism acts to constrain two adjacent struts of the proximal stent at three points radially therearound, at the proximal end of the stent and at the distal end of the stent. The proximal stent may then overlap with the interior of an adjacent stent at an inner part of a curved vessel.

    摘要: A stent graft includes a tubular graft element to which there are attached a plurality of stent rings. The stent rings are formed of a plurality of stent struts arranged in a zig-zag arrangement with alternating peaks and valleys. The end-most stent is located at the proximal end of the graft tube. Between adjacent peaks of the end most stent, there is provided a series of bridging elements. These are preferably formed of Nitinol wire and to be substantially more flexible than the stent struts. The bridging elements extend in the region of graft material between adjacent stent peaks and are attached to the graft material, for example by suturing. The bridging elements are substantially more flexible than the stent ring and therefore impart little opening force on the graft material in comparison to the force produced by the stent ring. However, the bridging elements impart enough force on the flaps of graft material between the peaks of the stent ring keep these flaps open, that is against the vessel wall. The bridging elements can provide integral barbs.

    摘要: A fenestrated implantable medical device, such as a stent graft (10) is provided with a plurality of zigzag stents (12) of which two or more form fenestrations (34, 36) using part of the stents (12) as a support frame (30, 32) for the fenestrations (34, 36). The frames (30, 32) are preferably covered by radiopaque wire (44) coiled around the stent structures. The radiopaque coil (44) provides easy reference to the fenestrations (30, 32) for imaging purposes.
