Patent

CA 2441061

A stent (100) with a plurality of support elements (110) that are deployable within a body for supporting a vessel or other body structure. The stent (110) includes first (104) and second (106) terminal ends and a length extending between the terminal ends(104, 106). Support rails (120) extend between the terminal ends (104, 106) and through the support elements (110) in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the stent (100). The support elements (110) can include openings (117) for receiving the rails (120). The rails (120) can be formed of a spring (122) so that the stend (100) can easily conform to the minor bend of a curved vessel when the stent (100) is deployed.

Cette invention concerne un stent doté d'une pluralité d'éléments-supports qui peuvent être déployés à l'intérieur du corps pour maintenir un vaisseau ou autre structure corporelle. Ce stent comprend une première et une seconde extrémités distantes l'une de l'autre. Des baleines relient les extrémités et traversent les éléments-supports dans un sens parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du stent. Les éléments-supports peuvent présenter des ouvertures pour la réception des baleines. Les baleines peuvent être constituées par un ressort de sorte que le stent peut épouser facilement une courbure mineure dans un vaisseau une fois déployé.
