Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a prostate stent. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the change of people's working and living styles, more and more people have formed the habit of sitting for a long time. In the early years, prostate enlargement often occurred in the elderly, but now it is becoming younger and younger. Prostate enlargement can squeeze the urethra, causing male patients to have difficulty urinating, and even cause urethral stones and other problems, affecting the normal life of patients and causing pain to patients.

[0003] The prostate stents currently used in clinical practice expand the urinary tract by dilation, thereby solving the urination problem. However, the stent is prone to displacement in the urethra for a long time. The stents are mostly cylindrical, and no prostate urethra is a fairly regular cylindrical shape. It is difficult for the stent and urethra to match completely. A significantly enlarged prostate is often combined with a curved and irregular prostate urethra. The stent and the prostate urethra wall cannot fit closely together, forming a bridge effect, which is prone to stones.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, a prostate stent is proposed in the present application. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model is further described in detail below in combination with specific implementation methods and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are only exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. In addition, in the following description, the description of well-known structures and technologies is omitted to avoid unnecessary confusion of the concept of the utility model.

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a prostate stent proposed by the utility model includes a prostate stent body 1;

[0027] The inner and outer surfaces of the prostate stent body 1 are provided with polyurethane elastomer films;

[0028] The prostate stent body 1 comprises a first stent body 10, a connecting wire 11 and a second stent body 12;

[0029] The first part of the stent body 10 is connected to the second part of the stent body 12 by a connecting wire 11;

[0030] The first part of the bracket body 10 is a concave curved triangle structure.

[0031] In a specific embodiment, the first part of the bracket body 10 includes a first part of the bracket main body part metal skeleton 101 and a first part of the bracket closing part skeleton 102. The first part of the bracket main body part metal skeleton 101 is connected to the first part of the bracket closing part skeleton 102. The first part of the bracket main body part metal skeleton 101 is a concave curved triangular spiral structure. The three sides of the first part of the bracket main body part metal skeleton 101 form a concave arc surface. The end of the connecting wire 11 away from the second part of the bracket metal skeleton 121 is connected to the first part of the bracket closing part skeleton 102.

[0032] It should be noted that: the metal skeleton 101 of the first part of the stent body 10 is spirally formed by shape memory alloy wire, and the metal skeleton 101 of the first part of the stent body is wound up from the first part of the stent closing part skeleton 102 and starts to be wound in a curved triangular spiral. Since the first part of the stent body 10 is designed to be a concave curved triangle structure, the circumferential extrusion deformation of the prostatic urethra part is relatively uniform, and the inside of the prostatic urethra part is tightly attached to the outside of the first part of the stent body 10, thereby avoiding the adverse clinical phenomenon of stones formed by gaps between the outside of the prostatic stent body 1 and the prostatic urethra part; due to the structural characteristics of the concave curved triangle of the first part of the stent body 10, the tissue forms a stretched and embedded state, and the prostatic stent body 1 can avoid radial rotation in the urethra as long as it is placed in the appropriate position of the urethra.

[0033] In a specific embodiment, the diameter of the inscribed circle of the curved triangle of the concave cross-section of the first portion of the bracket body 10 is 5 mm-7 mm.

[0034] In a specific embodiment, the polyurethane elastomer film is a uniform, smooth, non-porous film with a thickness of 100 microns.

[0035] In a specific embodiment, the hardness of the polyurethane elastomer film is 70A hardness material; the thickness of the polyurethane elastomer film is 50-100 microns.

[0036] In a specific embodiment, a bending point A1011, a bending point B1012, a bending point C1013, a bending point D1014, a bending point E1015 and a bending point F1016 are formed at the triangular vertices of the metal skeleton 101 of the main body of the first bracket.

[0037] It should be noted that: bend and spirally wind in the opposite direction at the bending point A1011 at the first vertex of the triangle of the metal skeleton 101 of the main part of the first part of the bracket, and then bend and spirally wind in the opposite direction at the bending point B1012 at the first vertex; bend and spirally wind in the opposite direction at the bending point C1013 at the second vertex, and then bend and spirally wind in the opposite direction at the bending point D1014 at the second vertex; bend and spirally wind in the opposite direction at the bending point E1015 at the third vertex, and then bend and spirally wind in the opposite direction at the bending point F1016 at the third vertex, and repeat the spiral winding in this way.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, the bent portion at the triangular vertices of the metal skeleton 101 of the first bracket main body is in a spiral cross-opening structure.

[0039] It should be noted that: through the spiral cross-opening structure, when the metal skeleton 101 of the first part of the stent body is squeezed by the urethral tissue, it is easy to embed into the urethral tissue, providing friction force for the prostate stent body 1 to prevent radial rotation and axial movement.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, a reinforcing rod 1017 is installed on the inner side of the triangular vertices of the metal frame 101 of the main body of the first bracket.

[0041] It should be noted that the reinforcing rod 1017 is provided to ensure the axial stability of the metal skeleton 101 of the first part of the stent body, and also enhance the radial support force of the metal skeleton 101 of the first part of the stent body, which is more effective in reconstructing the urethra for patients with prostatic hypertrophy and urethral curvature.

[0042] In a specific embodiment, the shape memory alloy wire wound around the metal skeleton 101 of the main body of the first part of the bracket is a round wire or a strip wire. The diameter of the round wire is 0.15-0.25 mm, and the thickness of the strip wire is 0.15 mm. During the specific molding process, it can be woven or laser cut, and then heat-treated to form a spirally concave curved triangle.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, the metal skeleton 101 of the main body of the first stent is formed by spirally winding a single wire or multiple wires, and specifically, a single wire is used for spiral winding.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, the skeleton 102 of the closing portion of the first stent is wound in a wave shape, and the external shape completes the transition from the concave curved triangle of the metal skeleton 101 of the first stent main body to a cylinder, which is consistent with the changes in the male urethra anatomical structure.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, the small conical parts of the first part stent body 10 and the second part stent body 12 of the prostate stent body 1 are connected by a connecting wire 11, and both ends of the prostate stent body 1 are the large conical parts of the first part stent body 10 and the second part stent body 12, so that the prostate stent body 1 can be prevented from moving along the axis of the urethra. The connecting wire 11 is arranged to be single or multiple, and the shape is spiral, straight or curved.

[0046] In a specific embodiment, the second part bracket body 12 is a second part bracket metal skeleton 121, which is an integrally formed wave-shaped conical cylindrical structure with an opening, and the end of the connecting wire 11 away from the closing part skeleton 102 of the first part bracket is connected to the second part bracket metal skeleton 121.

[0047] It should be noted that after the prostate stent body 1 is placed into the urethra, the prostate stent body 1 can be pulled out in a strip shape by grasping the starting part of the opening of the second part of the stent metal frame 121 .

[0048] In a specific embodiment, the connection wire 11 and the metal skeleton 101 of the main body part of the first stent are processed and formed, and the skeleton 102 of the closing part of the first stent and the metal skeleton 121 of the second stent are processed and formed.

Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, the claims attached to the present invention are intended to cover all changes and modifications that fall within the scope and boundaries of the attached claims, or the equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
