<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform the antihypertensive therapy in many medical facilities by dispensing with delicate design of an entry blocking member for every patient in treating the aortic dissection classified as the De Bakey IIIa type or the De Bakey IIIb type by the antihypertensive therapy. <P>SOLUTION: The treatment instrument for the aortic dissection is composed of a thin film-like blocking member 2 and a fixing member 3 for fixing the blocking member 2 to the inner membrane tissue of the arch aorta. The blocking member 2 is tubular to be inserted into a position to cover the entry of the arch aorta. The entry is blocked by letting the blood in a true lumen flow inside the blocking member 2 and deforming the blocking member 2 along the peripheral edge of the entry of the inner membrane tissue with the pressure of the blood, and bringing into contact with the entry. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
