Selbstausspreizbare, vaskuläre Endoprothese

摘要

Vascular endoprosthesis intended to support the walls of anatomical channels. It consists of individual elements (1) assembled by longitudinal juxtaposition and comprising flexible and elastic longitudinal shafts (3, 4, 5) which are connected to each other by transverse ribs (2) which are likewise flexible and elastic and fixed on the intermediate shaft (3) in such a way as to form V shapes with the said shaft (3), the assembly constituting a fishbone structure which, when joined to another by juxtaposition, forms an apertured cylinder (53).
