Patent

CA 2638012

Disclosed is a method for removing deposits from an in vivo tissue, such as removing calcified plaque from a calcified aortic valve by removing the deposits with the help of shock waves produced by a light-source such as a laser in an aqueous liquid in proximity of the tissue as well as a shock-wave generating device useful in implementing the method. Disclosed is a minimally invasive valve-sparing treatment of calcific aortic stenosis.

La présente invention concerne un procédé pour l'élimination de dépôts à partir d'un tissu in vivo, tel que l'élimination d'une plaque calcifiée à partir d'une valve aortique calcifiée par l'élimination des dépôts au moyen d'ondes de choc produites par une source lumineuse telle qu'un laser dans un liquide aqueux à proximité du tissu ainsi qu'un dispositif de génération d'ondes de choc utile pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé. L'invention a également trait à un traitement à invasion minimale de la sténose aortique calcifiée en épargnant la valve.
