Endovascular systems for deployment at branched arteries include a main tubular graft body deployable within a main artery including a proximal end and an opposed distal end. The proximal and distal ends have a tubular graft wall therein between. A plurality of inflatable channels are disposed along the main tubular graft body, and at least one stent segment is disposed along the tubular graft wall of the main tubular graft body. The plurality of inflatable channels are configured to be inflatable with an inflation medium. The at least one stent segment is disposed between two or more adjacent inflatable channels of the plurality of inflatable channels.

An illustrative stent may comprise an elongated tubular member having a longitudinal axis, the elongated tubular member comprising at least one knitted filament forming a plurality of twisted knit stitches with intermediate rung portions extending circumferentially between radially adjacent twisted knit stitches. Each twisted knit stitch may be interconnected with a longitudinally adjacent twisted knit stitch forming a series of linked stitches. The elongated tubular member may be configured to move between a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration, wherein in the collapsed configuration the series of linked stitches form longitudinal columns and in the expanded configuration the series of linked stitches extend helically around the elongated tubular member.

A stent which has a cylindrical tubular shape in which wires cross each other and are woven includes first regions each including a horizontal folding crossing portion in which the wires are folded in an axial direction and cross each other and a vertical folding crossing portion in which the wires are folded in a circumferential direction and cross each other. The first region is a region in which the horizontal folding crossing portion and the vertical folding crossing portion are arranged in the circumferential direction, and the first regions are arranged at intervals in the axial direction.

Devices and methods divert blood flow from a first vessel to a second vessel and maintain blood flow in the first vessel. The device includes a first segment and a second segment. The first segment is configured to anchor in the first vessel. The first segment includes a window to allow blood to flow into the first segment, through the window, and distal in the first vessel. The second segment is configured to anchor in the second vessel. The second segment is configured to allow blood to flow into the first segment, through the second segment, and into the second vessel.

The present invention relates to a novel medical connecting device and medical devices comprising at least one such medical connecting device as well as its use in medical prostheses.

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide an interventional valve stent and an aortic valve. The interventional valve stent may include a valve stent defining a frame lumen. The valve stent may include straight rods connecting an upstream port and a downstream port, and oblique rods connected between the straight rods. An upstream section, a midstream section, and a downstream section may be sequentially formed along a direction from the upstream port to the downstream port. When the valve stent expands from a compressed state to an expanded state, an expansion strain provided by the oblique rods located in the midstream section to a circumferential direction of the valve stent may be greater than an expansion strain provided by the oblique rods located in the upstream section and/or the downstream section to the circumferential direction of the valve stent to compensate for a rate difference between a rate of circumferential expansion of the midstream section and a rate of circumferential expansion of the upstream section and/or a rate of circumferential expansion of the downstream section.

A stent assembly system and a stent assembly method are provided. The stent assembly system includes a stent and an assembly instrument; the assembly instrument is configured to assemble and deliver the stent, and includes a sheath core tube, an outer sheath tube, and an assembly part; the outer sheath tube slidably surrounds the sheath core tube in an axial direction; an accommodating cavity for accommodating the stent is formed between the inner wall of the outer sheath tube and the outer wall of the sheath core tube; the assembly part has a fixed end and a free end opposite to the fixed end, and the fixed end is connected to the sheath core tube; and when the stent is crimped radially on the sheath core tube, the free end is hooked to the stent to limit the stent.
