AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Disease of the vasculature, particularly in the aortic arch and its branch vessels, is difficult to treat due to their tortuous nature and complexity, making it challenging for medical practitioners to access and effectively deploy treatment devices.
Method used
A branched stent graft device with a main body and branch members, featuring recessed openings and support walls, is deployed using guidewires and sleeves to facilitate precise positioning and expansion, allowing treatment of both main vessels and branch vessels simultaneously.
Benefits of technology
The device enables less invasive and simplified treatment of vascular diseases by providing precise deployment and improved access to complex vasculature, enhancing treatment efficacy and reducing procedural complexity.
