  • Patent number: 10617542
    Abstract: An elastic ring, defining an inner opening, an outer contour and an annular bearing surface between the inner opening and the outer contour. The ring is deformable between a rest position and an insertion position in which the inner opening has a diameter greater than its diameter in the rest position. The ring is also elastically biased towards the rest position. The ring includes at least three strands passing through the ring, each strand having a first end and a second end positioned on the outer contour, the inner contour of the opening being defined by a portion of each strand and having a pseudo-polygonal shape.

  • Publication number: 20190231569
    Abstract: The invention relates to a set of drivers for the insertion and connection of implants in conduits exhibiting a bifurcation, a main driver having an internal sheath provided with an atraumatic tip and an axial hole, an external sheath, a main implant disposed between the sheaths, the external sheath being provided with a groove along a part of its length, the internal sheath having a lateral hole facing said groove, said main implant having a window aligned with the lateral hole, the main driver having an extractable complementary sheath, a first end of which passes through the lateral hole, the window and the groove, a secondary driver having an internal secondary sheath provided with a secondary atraumatic tip which has a secondary axial hole, an external secondary sheath, a secondary implant disposed between the secondary internal and external sheaths, a main guide intended to be fitted in the axial hole in order to guide the main driver, a secondary guide passing through the bifurcation in order to be fit
