Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method for maintaining the patency of a vessel via a stent while minimizing both the risk of permanent vessel collapse and the risk of dislodgment of the stent from the implant site if the stent is temporarily deformed due to external forces. The method utilizes a crush-resistant stent having either shape memory or superelastic properties.
