Lumen Stent and Implant
A lumen stent (100) and an implant are provided. The lumen stent includes a tubular body (11), an inner branch (12) and an outer branch (13) which are respectively communicated with the tubular body (11). The tubular body (11) includes a first body segment (111), a tapered segment (112) and a second body segment (113) which are connected in sequence. The tapered segment (112) is provided with an outer branch window (110b) and an inner branch window (110a). The proximal end of the outer branch (13) is connected to the outer branch window (110b). The distal end of the inner branch (12) is connected to the inner branch window (110a). The area of the inner branch window (110a) is larger than that of the outer branch window (110b). The beneficial effects are as follows: since the area of the inner branch window (110a) is larger than that of the outer branch window (110b), most of blood flow can rapidly pass through the inner branch (12), so that the blood flow pressure of the outer branch (13) is reduced, and the distal end of the outer branch (13) is prevented from tilting and touching an inner wall of a tumor cavity.
Vascular bifurcation prosthesis
A prosthesis is disclosed for placement at an Os opening from a main body lumen to a branch body lumen. The prosthesis includes a radially expansible support at one end, a circumferentially extending link at the other end and at least one frond extending axially therebetween. The support is configured to be deployed in the branch body lumen, with the circumferentially extending link in the main lumen and the frond extendable across the Os.

Stent with a crush-resistant zone
An endoluminal prosthesis system for a branched body lumen comprises a branch vessel prosthesis. The branch vessel prosthesis is deployable within a branch vessel body lumen and comprises a stent having a generally tubular body portion, a flareable proximal end portion, and a coupling portion disposed intermediate the body portion and the flareable portion. The coupling portion is more crush-resistant than the body portion. The flareable proximal end may be disposed within a fenestrated stent graft with coupling portion disposed in the fenestration of the fenestrated stent graft.

Personalized prosthesis and methods of use
A personalized prosthesis for implantation at a treatment site of a patient includes a self-expanding mesh or membrane having collapsed and expanded configurations. The collapsed configuration is adapted to be delivered to the treatment site, and the expanded configuration engages the personalized prosthesis with the treatment site. The mesh or membrane is personalized to match the treatment site in the expanded configuration, and has an outer surface that substantially matches the treatment site shape and size. The self-expanding mesh or membrane forms a central lumen configured to allow blood or other body fluids to flow therethrough. Methods of manufacturing and delivery of the personalized prosthesis are also disclosed.

Partially crimped stent
A crimping method that crimps a stent over multiple catheters. The method includes differentially crimping a stent on certain portions of a balloon catheter so that a second catheter can be threaded through the uncrimped portion of the stent and exit through the links of a conventional stent design or through a specific hole in the stent designed for a branched vessel.

SELF-ORIENTING ENDOVASCULAR DELIVERY SYSTEM
An elongate delivery shaft assembly (30) includes an outer covering shaft (38) and an inner support shaft (40). When the delivery shaft assembly (30) is unconstrained and a stent-graft (20) is removably constrained in a radially-compressed delivery state along a distal end portion (34) of the delivery shaft assembly (30), radially between the outer covering shaft (38) and the inner support shaft (40): (a) the delivery shaft assembly (30) is shaped so as to define a self-orienting portion (50), which (i) is shaped so as to define at least proximal and distal curved portions (52A, 52B), the proximal curved portion (52A) disposed more proximal than the distal curved portion (52B), and (ii) at least one point of inflection (53) on a central longitudinal axis (36) of the delivery shaft assembly (30) longitudinally between the proximal and the distal curved portions (52A, 52B), and (b) respective smallest radii of curvature of the proximal and the distal curved portions (52A, 52B), measured at the central longitudinal axis (36), are each between 2.5 and 12 cm.
