Abstract
The present invention uses sets of strut members where the most distal set of strut members is similar to that of most stents in that the plane of the distal set of strut members is perpendicular to the stent's longitudinal axis. The present invention has a multiplicity of circumferential sets of strut members, but only the distal set of strut members has its plane perpendicular to the stent's longitudinal axis. The more proximal sets of strut members are angulated, so that the plane of the most proximal set of strut members has a preset angle such as 30°, 45° or 60° relative to the stent's longitudinal axis. The stent could also be formed from or coated with a highly radiopaque material. Alternately, a radiopaque marker could be placed at the most proximal point of the angulated, side branch stent, for the stent has to be rotated by the clinician until the plane of the most proximal angulated set of strut members is situated to be approximately parallel to the plane of the ostium of the side branch. It is also envisioned to widen the diagonal sections of the most proximal circumferential set of strut members to increase their radiopacity as compared to the radiopacity of the more distal circumferential sets of strut members. This can assist the clinician who places the side branch stent to have it properly placed at the ostium of the side branch.
Claims (17)
1. A stent comprising:
a thin-walled, multi-cellular, tubular structure having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end and a distal end; a multiplicity of circumferential sets of strut members, longitudinally separated each from the other and each set of strut members forming a closed, cylindrical portion of the stent, the stent also having a proximal set of strut members located at the proximal end of the stent, a distal set of strut members located at the distal end of the stent and central sets of strut members positioned between the proximal and distal sets of strut members, the plane of the most proximal set of strut members having an angulation between 15 and 75 degrees with respect to the longitudinal axis of the stent when the stent has been expanded within a vessel of the human body and the plane of the proximal distal and central sets of strut members differing from one another.
a thin-walled, multi-cellular, tubular structure having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end and a distal end; a multiplicity of circumferential sets of strut members, longitudinally separated each from the other and each set of strut members forming a closed, cylindrical portion of the stent, the stent also having a proximal set of strut members located at the proximal end of the stent, a distal set of strut members located at the distal end of the stent and central sets of strut members positioned between the proximal and distal sets of strut members, the plane of the most proximal set of strut members having an angulation between 15 and 75 degrees with respect to the longitudinal axis of the stent when the stent has been expanded within a vessel of the human body and the plane of the proximal distal and central sets of strut members differing from one another.

6. The stent of claim 1 wherein the stent is mounted on a rapid exchange stent delivery catheter.
7. The stent of claim 1 wherein the entire stent is formed from a radiopaque metal.
8. The stent of claim 7 wherein the metal is tantalum.
9. The stent of claim 1 wherein the stent is coated with a radiopaque metal.
10. The stent of claim 9 wherein the metal is gold.
11. The stent of claim 1 wherein the proximal set of strut members is coated with a radiopaque metal.
12. The stent of claim 9 wherein the metal is gold.
13. The stent of claim 1 wherein a radiopaque marker is attached to the most proximal location on the most proximal set of strut members.
14. The stent of claim 1 wherein a radiopaque marker is attached to the most distal location on the most proximal set of strut members.
15. The stent of claim 1 wherein diagonal sections of the proximal set of strut members have a greater average width than the width of diagonal sections of the central sets of strut members.
