  • Patent number: 10188501
    Abstract: A bifurcated stem graft (10) comprises a body (100) and a side branch (200) that forms an acute angle with the body (100). The side branch (200) comprises a covering film (220) and a first bare stent (240) only disposed on the covering film (220). Part of the first bare stent (240) is positioned adjacent a boundary line (230) of the body (100) and the covering film (220) and is located in a vertex angle area (250) of the acute angle. Due to the fact that part of the first bare stem (240) is attached to the vertex angle area (250), after the stem (10) is released, the self-expanded part of the first bare stent (240) enables the vertex angle area (250) of the side branch (200) to be effectively supported, the covering film is not prone to shrinkage, and a leading wire can enter easily.

  • Patent number: 10010402
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a thoracic aortic covered stent (100), comprising a bare stent segment (110) and a covered stent segment (120). The bare stent segment (110) comprises a bare wave-shaped ring (111); the covered stent segment (120) has a lesser curvature side region (100c), a greater curvature side region (100a), and two opposite intermediate regions (100b) located between the lesser curvature side region (100c) and the greater curvature side region (100a) respectively; and the covered stent segment (120) comprises a first proximal wave-shaped ring (121).

  • Publication number: 20180071076
    Abstract: A method for treating an aneurysm with at least one branch blood vessel branched from a diseased aorta comprises implanting an aortic stent graft and an auxiliary stent into a diseased blood vessel to isolate the aneurysm, wherein the auxiliary stent comprises a bifurcated stent graft, one end of the aortic stent graft is attached to the wall of a healthy blood vessel upstream of the aneurysm, and the auxiliary stent comprises a body portion and a branch portion communicated with the body portion, one end of the body portion is communicated with a healthy blood vessel downstream of the aneurysm, the other end of the body portion is communicated with the aortic stent graft, and the branch portion is suspended within the diseased blood vessel. A straight stent graft is advanced towards the branch portion from the location downstream of the bifurcated stent graft and deployed to communicate the branch portion and the branch blood vessel.

  • Publication number: 20160310258
    Abstract: The present invention provides an aortic arch intraoperative stent, wherein the aortic arch intraoperative stent comprising a main body (17) and one to three branches (5, 6, 7), The aortic arch intraoperative stent connects several circular waveform rings together via a cover membrane (25) to form the main body (17) and the branches (5, 6, 7), wherein each circular waveform ring comprises a circular elastic wire formed through head-to-tail connection. In addition, the present invention also provides a manufacturing method for the aortic arch intraoperative stent, comprising the following steps of: providing a cover membrane mandrel (40); making an inner membrane; assembling circular waveform rings; making an outer membrane; suturing a proximal fabric (12); and suturing a distal fabric (13).
