Self-expanding stent delivery systems and methods having an introducer that receives a delivery catheter. The delivery catheter includes an outer body, an inner body and a stent loaded onto a stent bed within the inner body. At least one anchoring mechanism provided on the inner body helps maintain the undeployed loaded stent appropriately in the stent bed during deployment. The at least one anchoring mechanism can include radiopaque material to increase fluoroscopic visualization of the stent during deployment, and the self- expanding stent can be a bio-absorbable material including drugs or other bio- active agents incorporated therein or provided thereon. After deployment of the stent at the intended treatment site, removal of the inner body and outer body of the delivery catheter and of the introducer occurs.

Systèmes de délivrance d'endoprothèse à auto-expansion et procédés correspondants. Ces systèmes comprennent un dispositif d'introduction qui reçoit un cathéter de délivrance, lequel comporte un corps externe, un corps interne et une endoprothèse chargée sur un lit d'endoprothèse à l'intérieur du corps interne. Il existe au moins un mécanisme d'ancrage, sur le corps interne, contribuant à maintenir l'endoprothèse chargée non déployée de façon appropriée dans le lit d'endoprothèse durant le déploiement. On peut intégrer au(x) mécanisme(s) en question un matériau radioopaque pour augmenter la visualisation fluoroscopique de l'endoprothèse durant le déploiement, et l'endoprothèse à auto-expansion peut être constituée d'un matériau bioabsorbable auquel on intègre ou applique des médicaments ou autres agents bioactifs. Après le déploiement de l'endoprothèse sur le site de traitement visé, on procède au retrait du corps interne et du corps externe du cathéter de délivrance et de l'introducteur.
