Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an abdominal aorta-iliac artery integrated inner external branch stent. Background Art
[0002] Isolated iliac artery aneurysms account for 2% to 7% of all abdominal aneurysm diseases. Endovascular treatment has become an attractive alternative to open surgery, especially for elderly patients with multiple diseases. It has been proven to be safe and effective, with good mid-term results.
[0003] At present, for lesions involving the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta or less than 1.5 cm near the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta, extending or exceeding the ipsilateral internal iliac artery, embolization of the ipsilateral internal iliac artery is often required, and then a standard bifurcated aortic stent is used to isolate the aneurysm cavity. The stent extends to the external iliac artery. The bifurcated aortic stent is usually composed of an elastic metal wire and a coating coated thereon. For such lesions, in addition to the use of a standard bifurcated abdominal aorta stent, an independent iliac artery stent is currently required. For cases where the internal iliac artery needs to be retained, an iliac artery branch stent is required. This method has a complicated surgical process. To solve the above problems, some stents integrating the abdominal aorta and iliac artery have appeared, including an abdominal aortic stent, a short leg branch of the iliac artery, and a long leg branch of the iliac artery. The long leg branch is also provided with an internal iliac artery segment. However, the stent still has some problems. The bifurcation is performed outside the distal end of the abdominal aorta. Since the stent is implanted and positioned from the proximal end of the abdominal aorta to the distal end after the abdominal aortic stent is positioned, The stent is released at the distal end. In order to ensure the smooth connection between the abdominal aortic stent and the iliac artery branch due to the external bifurcation, the part of the abdominal aortic stent close to the distal end will gradually expand, resulting in the cross-sectional area of the distal end of the abdominal aorta being larger than the cross-sectional area of the proximal end. If the diseased area is not in the infrarenal abdominal aorta, but at the connection with the iliac artery connected to it, this will cause the size of the distal end of the abdominal aorta of the stent to be much larger than the size of the human abdominal aorta, which will cause wrinkles at the bifurcation during the release process and cannot be fully expanded, resulting in a reduction in the flow cross-sectional area. These situations require repeated adjustments, which greatly increases the difficulty and duration of the operation. Utility Model Content
