Patent

CA 2200118

A stent for helping to hold open a lumen in a tubular body structure has at least one axial portion (preferably an axial end portion) that stents the surrounding portion of the tubular body structure to a lesser degree than another axial portion of the stent. For example, the stent portion that stents to a lesser degree may be circumferentially weaker than the other stent portion, or it may recoil more than the other stent portion after the stent is applied by being circumferentially expanded and then released.

Tendeur pour aider à maintenir ouverte une lumière dans un corps de construction tubulaire, comprenant au moins une partie axiale (préférablement une partie d'extrémité axiale), qui tend la partie voisine du corps de construction tubulaire à un degré moindre qu'une autre partie axiale du tendeur. Par exemple, la partie du tendeur qui tend à un moindre degré peut être plus faible en circonférence que l'autre partie de tendeur, ou elle peut se détendre davantage que l'autre partie de tendeur après que le tendeur ait été appliqué par développement circonférentiel puis relâché.
