A luminal stent has a tube body and a skirt surrounding the tube body. The skirt has a flexible connecting section and a stent graft connected to a proximal end of the flexible connecting section. A distal end of the flexible connecting section is sealed and connected to the outer surface of the tube body. A proximal end of the stent graft is suspended and provided with a first radial support structure. When the flexible connecting section is radially compressed, at least a part of the first radial support structure is bent towards a direction distant from the tube body. Also provided is a stent system including the luminal stent. The stent system and the luminal stent can prevent type III endoleaks.

This application relates to methods, systems, and apparatus for replacing native heart valves with prosthetic heart valves and treating valvular insufficiency. In a representative embodiment, a support frame configured to be implanted in a heart valve comprises a main body formed by formed by a plurality of inner members forming an inner clover and a plurality of outer members forming an outer clover. The support frame can include gaps located between inner members of the plurality of inner members and outer members of the plurality of outer members. The inner clover can be radially inside the outer clover, and the outer clover can have larger dimensions than the inner clover. The support frames herein can be radially expandable and collapsible.

A device for occluding a vasculature of a patient including a micrograft having an absorbent polymeric structure with a lumen of transporting blood. The micrograft has a series of peaks and valleys formed by crimping. The occluding device is sufficiently small and flexible to be tracked on a guidewire and/or pushed through a microcatheter to a site within the vasculature of the patient. Delivery systems for delivering the micrografts are also disclosed.

A double-layer lumen stent (100) includes a main body lumen stent (10) and an outer-layer skirt stent (20) surrounding an outer wall of the main body lumen stent (10); the outer-layer skirt stent (20) includes a support structure (21) and a cover layer (22) arranged on the support structure (21); one end of the outer-layer skirt stent (20) is connected to the outer wall of the main body lumen stent (10); the other end of the outer-layer skirt stent (20) is an opening structure (24) composed of the support structure (21); and the cover layer (22) is formed into an oblique cut shape at an edge of the opening structure (24). In the double-layer lumen stent (100), when a clinician releases the double-layer lumen stent (100) at a human tissue such as a vessel through a delivery device, constraint from the cover layer (22) to the opening structure (24) of the outer-layer skirt stent (20) can be reduced, and the adhesion between the cover layer (22) at the opening structure (24) on the outer-layer skirt stent (20) and the main body lumen stent (10) is reduced, thereby reducing release resistance to the outer-layer skirt stent (20) during the release process of the double-layer lumen stent (100).

An endoprosthesis (1) comprising a body part (2), a first cover sheet (4), and a thrombogenic fiber (5), wherein the (5) fibers are attached to the endoprosthesis (1) by means of a fixation layer (7) and partially arranged between the first cover sheet (4) and the fixation layer (7).

The invention relates to an endoprosthesis (1), in particular a vascular stent or a heart stent, comprising at least one body (3) part. At least one area (5,6) of an outer surface, preferably the whole outer surface, of the at least one body part (3) is provided with thrombogenic fibers (2). The invention further relates to methods of manufacturing endoprostheses (1).

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.

An apparatus includes a first stent graft that is at least partially insertable into a first blood vessel. The first stent graft has a first end, a second end, an inside surface, and an outside surface. The apparatus also includes an inflatable fill structure fixed to a portion of the outside surface of the first stent graft. The inflatable fill structure includes an outer membrane that is configured to extend beyond the first end of the first stent graft when the inflatable fill structure is in a filled state.

A blood conduit with stent has a flexible conduit body and an expandable stent structure. The conduit body has a first opening end through which only an inflow of a blood enters and a second opening end through which only an outflow of the blood leaves. The stent structure includes a plurality of threads adhered to the conduit body and expands in directions intersecting an axial direction of the conduit body. A boundary of one of the threads of the stent structure closest to the second opening end is away from the second opening end with a predetermined distance, thereby preventing blood back flow into the false lumen via a new tear.

The present invention relates to a stent graft for implantation in vessels of a patient, wherein the stent graft has a hollow cylindrical main body made of a first prosthesis material, with a proximal end and a distal end, with a longitudinal axis c and a circumference u, at least one pocket element which is made of a second prosthesis material and which is mounted circumferentially on the outer face and/or inner face of the main body in order to form a circumferential closed pocket on a longitudinal portion of the main body, and at least one stent element which extends in a meandering formation around the main body and is received inside the pocket element.
