Abstract

See full text

A stent for treating a region of a body lumen wherein at least two vessels form a junction includes a compressed state and an expanded state. In the expanded state, the stent is generally an ellipsoidal, spheroidal, or spherical shape. The stent is delivered to the junction in the compressed state disposed within a sleeve. Once at the junction, the sleeve is withdrawn proximally relative to the stent such that the stent is released from the sleeve and expands to the expanded state. A balloon may further expand the stent to appose the walls of the body lumen at the junction.
