The device comprises a prosthesis designed as a hollow body which is compressed against the action of restoring forces to a reduced cross section - compared with its expanded in-use shape - and it is held in this position by means of an unravellable cover. Once the cover has been unravelled, the prosthesis expands automatically to assume the appropriate cross sectional shape for its in-use position. The cover, which may take the form of a crocheted meshwork, extends over the entire length of the prosthesis and consists of at least one continuous thread and at least one unravelling line. The prosthesis, which is held in the radially compressed position by the cover, can be advanced along a guide wire or it may be mounted in an axially fixed manner on the leading end of a probe or of a catheter.
Le dispositif comprend une prothèse, conçue comme un corps creux, qui est comprimée par l'action de forces de rétablissement en une section transversale réduite (comparativement à sa forme déployée en usage) et est maintenue dans cette position au moyen d'un étui pouvant s'effilocher. Une fois l'étui effiloché, la prothèse se déploie automatiquement pour prendre la forme de section transversale appropriée à sa position en usage. L'étui, qui peut être un tissu crocheté, recouvre toute la prothèse et comporte au moins un fil continu et au moins une ligne s'effilochant. La prothèse, qui est maintenue dans la position comprimée radialement par l'étui, peut avancer le long d'un fil guide ou être montée d'une manière axiale fixe à l'extrémité avant d'une sonde ou d'un cathéter.
