The catheter includes an enlarged fastening member at one end. The sleeve is complementarily mounted on a front portion of the enlarged fastening member. The sleeving member is complementarily mounted on the remaining portion of the enlarged fastening member. The recess and the opening form a through hole having an enlarged intermediate portion. The enlarged fastening member has a truncated trapezoidal shape. The sleeving member, the enlarged fastening member and a connector of a receiving seat in the port form a watertight structure at the through hole. | 02-07-2013 |
20130218258 | Abdominal Aortic Stent - An abdominal aortic stent includes a first sub-stent and a second sub-stent, each having a front end and the circumference of the front end of each sub-stent is half of the circumference of the abdominal aorta, and when the circumference is gradually reduced to a rear end of each sub-stent, it has entered one side of the bilateral femoral arteries, wherein the rear ends of the sub-stents with full circumference of the cross-sectional area of the femoral artery are included therein; the first and second sub-stents are coated with external removable membrane to compress the sub-stents to generate smaller circumferences, and when the membrane has been removed, the sub-stents are fully extended to reconstruct the vascular flow path. | 08-22-2013 |
