WIRE REINFORCING TUBE PROSTHESIS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a prosthesis with self-expandability. SOLUTION: An intratubular tube or a forked prosthesis 10 for treating an aneurysm or another coronary disease is disclosed. This includes soft/hard emphraxis. The prosthesis 10 is constituted by producing structure consisting of a cloth or another polymer matter 12 and a superelastic metal 14 to be taken in it. The metal 14 can be nitinol, a ductile wire or another filament matter. The cloth 12 can be a polymer matter. The wire 14 gives self- expandability to this instrument 10. It is ideal to minimize the thickness of the instrument 10 so as to bring to a desired place through the use of a endermic method.
