Provided is a segmented covered stent (100), which includes a covering membrane (120) and a support frame (110) fixed to the covering membrane (120). The support frame (110) comprises an annular structure (1200) and a spiral structure (1300), wherein the annular structure (1200) is formed by a plurality of first wave-shaped units (1100) connected end to end; and the spiral structure (1300) is a tubular structure formed by a plurality of second wave-shaped units (1400) connected end to end and arranged in a continuous spiral manner, and the overall extension direction of the spiral structure (1300) is parallel to the support frame (110). A method for preparing the segmented covered stent (100) is further provided.

Luminal stent

A luminal stent includes a tube body that can be compressed and expanded in the radial direction, and an anti-leakage structure. The tube body is divided by the anti-leakage structure into a first tube body positioned on one side of the anti-leakage structure, and a second tube body positioned on the other side of the anti-leakage structure, with at least part of the first tube body being encircled by the anti-leakage structure. In a compressed state, the maximum compression diameter of the anti-leakage structure and the first tube body encircled by the anti-leakage structure is greater than or equal to the maximum compression diameter of the second tube body.

CONSTRAINABLE STENT GRAFT, DELIVERY SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE
20230048537 · 2023-02-16 ·

A stent graft for treating an arterial aneurysm includes a ligature traversing at least a portion of struts of stents, the ligature having ends that, when linked, at least partially constrict a radial dimension of the stents. The ends of the ligature can be linked by a wire in a stent graft delivery system that threads anchor loops longitudinally spanning ends of the ligature to maintain the stent in a radially constricted position during delivery to the aneurysm. The stent graft can be implanted at the aneurysm by retracting the wire from the linked ends of the ligature and from the anchor loops, thereby releasing the associated stent from the radially constricted position.

Methods and Apparatus for Treatment of Aneurysms Adjacent Branch Arteries

A polymer coating/ring is employed to aid in the sealing and connection of modular elements used in body flow lumens for the exclusion and bypass of diseased regions of the flow lumen, such as where aneurysm occurs adjacent to branching blood vessels.

UNIVERSAL ENDOVASCULAR GRAFTS
20230102994 · 2023-03-30 ·

Universal endovascular grafts are provided for evaluation and repair of damaged or aneurismal blood vessels. More particularly, the present invention relates to universal fenestrated and universal branched endografts for repair of blood vessels with branches, methods for implanting the endografts in the vessel and for making connection with one or more branches. The universal fenestrated endografts have a body with a first end, a second end, a first wall, a second wall, and an interior passage or lumen. The body further includes openings in communication with the passage at the first and second ends and one or more lateral fenestrations in communication with the lumen. The body further has a necked portion between the ends and a cannulation member. The universal branched endografts have a tubular body with a main lumen and four branch lumens. A large branch extends from the body. The four lumens are positioned about a circumference of the tubular body.
