11/23/06 - 20060265052 - Deployable stent
A stent 1 comprises a sheet 2 of biocompatible material having a tubular shape and folded with a pattern of folds allowing the sheet 2 to be collapsed for deployment. The pattern of folds comprises a unit cell repeated over the sheet 2. The unit cell comprises: two longitudinal folds ...

08/10/06 - 20060178727 - Hybrid amorphous metal alloy stent
An expandable stent is provided, wherein the stent is advantageously formed of at least one amorphous metal alloy and a biocompatible material. The stent is formed from flat metal in a helical strip which is wound to form a tubular structure. The tubular structure is not welded but rather is ...

07/06/06 - 20060149359 - Stent
A stent and a method of making it from a wire, which method includes winding the wire on a mandrel, heating to form a coiled spring, and reversing the winding direction of the coiled spring to form the reversed coiled spring stent. The stent so formed may be reheated over ...

07/06/06 - 20060149358 - Porous synthetic vascular grafts with oriented ingrowth channels
A vascular prosthesis is constructed from a structure having interconnected, helically oriented channel-porosity to allow oriented ingrowth of connective tissue into a wall of the prosthesis. The prosthesis can have a small internal diameter of 6 mm or less. Several different methods can be used to produce the prosthesis, including ...

06/29/06 - 20060142845 - Medical devices including metallic films and methods for making same
Medical devices, such as endoprostheses, and methods of making the devices are disclosed. The medical device can include a stent body and a cover including a deposited metallic film. The medical device can be delivered using a delivery device along a tortuous body passage to a treatment site without damaging ...

06/22/06 - 20060136043 - Filament-wound implantable devices
A self-expanding implantable medical device formed from one or more non-interlocking filaments. Stents, stent-grafts, occluder devices, and filters are manufactured from one or more filaments utilizing a non-interlocking crossing pattern. ...

06/15/06 - 20060129233 - Expandable coil stent
An implantable coil stent comprises at least a first curved segment and a second curved segment which arc about the longitudinal axis of the stent. An expandable link extends between the second end of the first curved segment and the first end of the second curved segment. ...

04/13/06 - 20060079955 - Non-shortening helical stent
A stent may comprise a helically wound ribbon of material. The stent may comprise a plurality of ribbon turns about a longitudinal axis of the stent. Upon expansion of the stent, the diameter of the stent may increase and the number of ribbon turns may decrease. Upon expansion of the ...

03/23/06 - 20060064158 - Stent and method for manufacturing the stent
A stent includes a stent body having a circumference, a diameter of between approximately 4 mm and approximately 12 mm, in particular, 8 mm, and a length of between approximately 10 mm and approximately 250 mm, in particular, 150 mm, and struts disposed helically about the circumference in turns. Substantially ...

02/09/06 - 20060030934 - Vascular prosthesis having improved flexibility and nested cell delivery configuration
An implantable vascular prosthesis having improved flexibility is provided comprising a helical body portion having a reduced delivery configuration and an expanded deployed configuration, the helical body portion comprising a plurality of cells interconnected by hinge points that enhances flexibility of the vascular prosthesis and provides at least partial nesting ...

01/05/06 - 20060004438 - Prosthesis, delivery system and method for neurovascular aneurysm repair
The present invention is directed to a prosthesis for treating an aneurysm, and delivery systems and methods therefor. The prosthesis includes a radially expanding distal section coupled to a helical section, the helical section including a localized feature configured to exclude or retard blood flow into an aneurysm. Methods of ...

09/29/05 - 20050216076 - Helical stent design
An expandable tubular reinforcing member used for body lumens such as blood vessels, the reinforcing member being formed of a continuous elongated helical element comprised of spaced undulating portions forming end loop portions and including a plurality of curvilinear connector elements extending between and interconnecting at least some of the ...

09/15/05 - 20050203610 - Expandable stent
A medical apparatus is fabricated by providing a coil that has a plurality of primary loops along a longitudinal direction, and for each of one or more of the primary loops, forming one or more secondary loops on the primary loop. ...

08/04/05 - 20050171597 - Helical stent for branched vessel prosthesis
A branch vessel prosthesis is provided for use with an aorta stent graft defining a lumen and having a fenestration aligned with a branch vessel, including a generally helical coiled stent, preferably with a graft material affixed thereto to form a branch vessel lumen. At least one full turn at ...
