Vascular implant with side branch
The present invention relates to a self-expanding vascular implant (10; 50) for implanting into a blood vessel of a patient. The vascular implant (10; 50) has a main body (44; 52) and at least one side body (32; 56), and has in each case unipartite stent springs (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19; 59,...

Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to a self-expanding vascular implant (10; 50) for implanting into a blood vessel of a patient. The vascular implant (10; 50) has a main body (44; 52) and at least one side body (32; 56), and has in each case unipartite stent springs (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19; 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 46, 65, 66), which are arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of its main body (44; 52) and each run in meandering fashion perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and an implant material (43; 70) which is fastened to and connects the stent springs (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19; 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 46, 65, 66). The stent springs (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19; 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 46, 65, 66) have pointed arches (20; 57) that point alternately toward the proximal end and the distal end of the main body (44; 52) and parallel to the longitudinal direction thereof. The at least one side body (32; 56) that branches off from the main body (44; 52) is, in the self-expanded state, set out at an angle relative to the longitudinal direction of the main body (44; 52). |
