  • IMPLANT RELEASE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20170325952
    Abstract: A medical device release system may include an elongated rod having an enlarged distal end, a ring element slidingly disposed over the elongated rod, and two or more pins. The ring element may have a center channel sized and shaped to receive the elongated rod, wherein the enlarged distal end of the rod is larger than an inner diameter of the center channel, preventing the ring element from disengaging from the distal end of the rod. The two or more pins may each have a proximal end attached to the ring element and a distal end extending longitudinally and radially away from the ring element, the distal ends configured for releasable connection to a medical device.
