Abstract

See full text

A medical assembly for introducing an expansible prosthesis in a bodily duct includes a tubular sheath opened at a distal end, an elongated element disposed substantially at the centre of the sheath and letting an intermediate radial space between the elongated element and the sheath, and a pusher movable in said tubular sheath. The expansible prosthesis is introduced in the bodily duct by moving between a first holding position in which the prosthesis is at least substantially applied against an internal wall of the sheath, and a second expanded position in which the prosthesis is applied against an internal wall of the bodily duct, the expansible prosthesis passing through intermediate positions in which a proximal portion is inside the sheath and a distal portion is outside the sheath.
