MODULAR STENT ASSEMBLY

摘要

The present invention relates to an assembly (10) comprising at least a first stent (1') and a second stent (1'). Each stent comprises a proximal section (2), a central section (3), and a distal section (4). The proximal and distal sections provide a radial force which is essentially equal to a half of the radial force which is provided by the central section. Thus, by overlapping the distal section (4') of the second stent (1') to the proximal section (2') of the first stent (1'), the radial force which is provided by the overlapped sections is nearly equal to the radial force which is provided by the central sections (3', 3') of the two stents.
