  • Endoprosthesis, and method for producing an endoprosthesis
    Patent number: 8187317
    Abstract: The endoprosthesis is designed to be implanted in an aneurysm (12) of a patient, the aneurysm (12) resulting from deformation of a vessel wall, in particular the wall of an artery (14), the endoprosthesis including: a tubular envelope (22, 24) that extends in a direction (Y-Y?), and a plurality of pressure probes (26) fixed on the envelope (22, 24), each probe (26) including: a sensor (28) for measuring pressure, and elements (34, 36) for transmitting the pressure measurement to a monitoring apparatus located outside the patient. The elements (34, 36) for transmitting the pressure measurement from each probe (26) are designed to generate an electromagnetic pressure measurement transmission signal including at least one distinctive characteristic of the probe (26) of which these elements (34, 36) form part.
