CA 2275921

A delivery system (100), including a restraining member (102), maintains a collapsed implant (106) in its collapsed state for delivery through a small passageway to a desired site in a mammalian body. Once the implant is positioned at the desired site, the restraining member is released so that the stent may expand or be expanded to its expanded state. In a preferred embodiment, the restraining member comprises a sheet of material that surrounds at least a portion of the collapsed stent. Portions of the restraining member are releasably coupled to one another with a low profile thread-like member or suture.

L'invention porte sur un système d'introduction (100) comprenant un élément de retenue (102) et maintenant un implant plié (106) à l'état plié de façon à l'introduire par un petit passage sur un site désiré d'un corps mammalien. Après positionnement de l'implant sur le site désiré, l'élément de retenue est dégagé de sorte que l'extenseur puisse se déployer ou être déployé. Selon une réalisation préférée, l'élément de retenue comprend une feuille de matériau entourant au moins une partie de l'extenseur plié. Des parties de l'élément de retenue peuvent être raccordées entre elles de manière libérable par un élément de type fil ou suture à profil plat.
