Medical device and methods for delivery or implantation of prostheses within hollow body organs and vessels or other luminal anatomy are disclosed. The subject technologies may be used in the treatment of atherosclerosis in stenting procedures. For such purposes, a self-expanding stent is deployed in connection with an angioplasty procedure with a corewire actuated delivery system having a fixed distal stent-carrying extension. Withdrawal of the corewire retracts a restraint freeing the stent from a collapsed state, whereupon the stent assumes an expanded configuration set in apposition to the interior surface of a vessel lumen in order to help maintain the vessel open.

Cette invention se rapporte à un dispositif médical et à des procédés permettant de mettre en place ou d'implanter des prothèses dans des organes creux du corps et des vaisseaux ou autres lumières de l'anatomie. Les technologies de cette invention peuvent être utilisées dans le traitement de l'athérosclérose dans des procédures de pose de stents. Pour ce faire, un stent auto-déployable est déployé conjointement à une procédure d'angioplastie à l'aide d'un système de pose actionné par un fil central comportant une extension distale fixe portant le stent. Le retrait du fil central rétracte un élément de retenue, libérant ainsi le stent d'un état replié, après quoi le stent adopte une configuration déployée selon laquelle il est apposé à la surface interne de la lumière d'un vaisseau afin qu'il aide à maintenir le vaisseau ouvert.
