Abstract: Methods are provided for the delivery of an implant into a body lumen of a patient. The method includes the steps of advancing a delivery device that includes a first tubular member housing an implant, a distal control member slidable within the first tubular member and releasably coupled with a distal portion of the implant, and an elongate grasper member slidable within the first tubular member and releasably coupled with a proximal portion of the implant. The method includes causing relative motion between the elongate grasper member and the first tubular member to expose at least a portion of the implant within the first tubular member, and then releasing the distal portion of the implant from the distal control member and the proximal portion of the implant from the elongate grasper member.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided for the delivery of an implant into the prostatic urethra. Embodiments of delivery systems can include a delivery device for insertion into the patient and a proximal control device for use in controlling release of the implant from the delivery device.

Abstract: Benign prosthetic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. Treatment options for BPH include medication, surgery (e.g., removal of enlarged prostate tissue), and minimally invasive procedures (e.g., needle ablation, electrovaporization, thermotherapy, and stent insertion). Minimally invasive procedure is typically the preferred choice if medication is ineffective. Accordingly, disclosed herein are system and method for treating BPH using improved implant and delivery device. Certain embodiments of the delivery device can include: a camming barrel having a first groove at the distal end of the camming barrel; a sheath, located within a lumen of the camming barrel, for storing the implantable device; and a first cam follower coupled to the sheath.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided for retrieval of an implant from the prostatic urethra. Embodiments of retrieval systems can include a device for insertion into the patient and a proximal control device for use in grasping a portion of the implant and withdrawing the implant into a lumen of the retrieval system.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided for the delivery of an implant into the prostatic urethra. Embodiments of implants are disclosed where the implants can have an elastic main body that is biased towards an at-rest configuration where the body forms multiple expander sections coupled together by interconnect portions. The expander sections can have numerous different shapes and configurations.
