Publication number: 20240000568Abstract: A delivery catheter for a stent. The delivery catheter may comprise a distal end and a proximal end. The distal end includes a stent attachment region adapted to receive a stent. The stent may be of the self-expanding type. The catheter further comprises a handle at its proximal end and at least one sheath which may at least partially circumferentially cover said stent such as to retain it in a collapsed configuration. The sheath is coupled at its proximal end to an actuator located on said handle portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2023Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Symetis SAInventors: JACQUES ESSINGER, STEPHANE DELALOYE, JEAN-LUC HEFTI, LUC MANTANUS
