An intravascular stent is a synthetic tubular structure intended for permanent implant in native or graft vasculature. The stent is designed to provide mechanical radial support after deployment; this support is meant to enhance vessel patency over the life of the device.
This invention discloses an endovascular stent for preventing branchvessel occlusion. The stent includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a mid-section. The stent is a mesh-like structure formed by weaving multiple biocompatible braided filaments with one or more high-density metal wires. The number of filaments in the proximal and distal ends is less than that in the mid-section, and the mesh size in the proximal and distal ends is larger than that in the mid-section. This endovascular stent provides sufficient support while effectively reducing the risk of branchvessel occlusion. The stent is also easier to press into a smaller diameter stent delivery tube, and the filaments at both ends are less prone to tangling during stent deployment.
