Tubular Prosthesis Having Improved Expansion And Imaging Characteristics

View page
US Patent:
59220201, Jul 13, 1999
Filed:
Aug 2, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/691661
Inventors:
Enrique J. Klein - Los Altos CA
Anthony P. Widdershoven - Citrus Heights CA
Assignee:
Localmed, Inc. - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
A61F 206
US Classification:
623 1
Abstract:
A radially expansible lumenal prosthesis comprises one or more body segments which include struts and hinge regions between the struts. Certain of the hinge regions are weakened relative to others so that the expansion characteristics of the prosthesis may be programmed. In particular, by distributing the weakened hinge regions circumferentially about the body segment, uniform expansion of the prosthesis can be improved, even when the prosthesis is only partially deployed.
Anthony P Widdershoven from Fullerton, CA, age ~65 Get Report
