Abstract: A stent insertion apparatus including a guide member in which a fixing part is formed includes a guide member configured to guide movement of a first stent inserted into a human body along a first guide wire inserted into a main area of stenosis to be installed in the main area of stenosis, wherein the guide member includes a fixing part configured to fix a leading end portion of a guide tube into which a second guide wire for installing a second stent is inserted, the second stent being inserted into a branched area of stenosis, which branches from the main area of stenosis, to be installed in the branched area of stenosis.

Abstract: A stent according to the present invention includes: a stent main body that has a plurality of holes formed in the surface thereof and a circumferential part of which the inside is hollow; and a cover that covers one side of the outer circumferential surface of the stent main body, in which the stent main body has an exterior path that provides a channel through which the body fluid secreted from a diverging duct can flow along the longitudinal direction of the stent main body to the outside of the cover.

Abstract: Disclosed is a stent insertion apparatus including a sheath formed to have a hollow shape and in which a stent is accommodated, a main guide tube movably inserted into the sheath and to which one end of the stent is coupled, and an auxiliary guide tube coupled to the main guide tube in a bifurcated manner and to which the other end of the stent, which branches from the one end of the stent, is coupled.

Abstract: A cardiac valve fixing device of the present invention comprises: a first structure, which continuously comes into contact with the lower surface of at least one cardiac valve; a second structure, which is connected to the first structure and continuously comes into contact with the upper surface of the cardiac valve; and a fixing barb, which is equipped in at least one of the first structure and the second structure and protrusively formed to the direction of the cardiac valve so as to be inserted into the cardiac valve. Accordingly, the cardiac valve fixing device of the present invention stably fixes the cardiac valve.

Abstract: Provided is a stent that is placed in the bile duct to facilitate bile secretion into the duodenum. The stent includes an elastically deformable body, a film part, and an anti-inversion part. The body has a predetermined diameter and length and is formed by interlacing wires in the form of a tube. The film part surrounds to cover at least a portion of the body, extends a predetermined length from one end of the body, and is made of a flexible material. The anti-inversion part is connected to the one end of the body from which the film part extends and prevents the film part from being inverted and folded inwardly toward the body.

Abstract: An artificial blood stent insertion device which includes a blood stent having a front end portion, a middle portion and a rear end portion compressed by a fixing wire having ring-shaped loops disposed at the sides thereof, and a core passing through the loops and extending through the moving tube so that one end thereof is accessible, whereby the artificial blood stent can be easily inserted and fixed to a desired position in a blood vessel without affecting blood pressure, and then the artificial blood stent is expanded by disengaging the core from the loops of the fixing wire.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a drug releasing membrane for stent and a drug releasing stent for intraluminal expansion comprising the same. The drug releasing membrane according to the present invention has a two layer structure consisting of an inner layer M1 and an outer layer M2, the inner layer M is a thermosetting resin layer, and said outer layer M2 is a thermoplastic resin layer containing drug particles. In addition, the drug releasing stent for intraluminal expansion according to the present invention has a structure in which said drug releasing membrane M is inserted in a cylindrical stent body S woven with shape memory alloy wire. The present invention has excellent physical properties in spite of contact with bile during use, and is also excellent in drug therapeutic effect since drug is released only in one direction toward the skin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cylindrical stent, which is a self-expanding type medical appliance for expanding the lumen of a blood vessel or esophagus that is stenosed, more specifically a cylindrical stent made of metal material forming a plurality of peak portions P and valley portions B and having a lengthwise axis. The cylindrical stent is characterized in that the end portions A of the peak portions forming both of the distal portions of the cylindrical stent are bent in the inward direction of the cylindrical stent. The present invention can effectively prevent the problem that a false blood vessel is formed as the vessel wall is exfoliated, broken or damaged due to contact between the distal portion of the cylindrical stent arid the vessel wall, and has an effect of effectively preventing the problem that inflammation occurs at the contact portion due to contact between the lumen wall of an esophagus, etc. and the distal portion of the cylindrical stent.

Abstract: Disclosed are a blood vessel graft and a graft introducer, the graft having a main body and first and second stents each mounted on an end of the main body, the graft introducer including an insertion tube member in which the blood vessel graft main body and the first stent member are inserted in a state where they are contracted, a first pusher member into which the second stent member is inserted in a state where it is contracted, the first pusher member being movably inserted into the insertion tube member to push the first stent member and the blood vessel graft main body out of the insertion tube member, and a second pusher member in which a catheter passing through the introducer is inserted, the second pusher member being movably inserted into the pusher member to push the second stent member inserted in the first pusher member out of the insertion tube member, thereby disposing the blood vessel graft in the blood vessel.
