Definitions

  • the invention relates to a graft and a stent/graft deployment catheter, particularly for repairing defects in arteries and other lumens within the body. More particularly, the invention relates to a reduced friction stent/graft deployment catheter for delivering a reduced friction graft in si tu for repairing defective body lumens, and particularly abdominal aortic aneurysms .
  • AAA abdominal aortic aneurysm
  • the AAA ordinarily occurs in the portion of the aorta below the kidneys. When left untreated, the aneurysm will eventually cause the sac to rupture with ensuing fatal hemorrhaging in a very short time.
  • the repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms has typically required major abdominal surgery in which the diseased and aneurysmal segment of the aorta is bridged with a prosthetic device, such as a synthetic graft .
  • the total cross sectional area of a traditional expandable stent/graft in its compressed deployment state is generally designed 10% to 30% less than the area of the corresponding delivery sheath in order to limit friction between the graft and the delivery sheath and to ensure that the stent/graft is not damaged upon deployment. Therefore, it is desired to reduce the friction between the graft and the delivery sheath so as to allow for the use of a reduced diameter introducer sheath and deployment catheter.
  • the invention is a low friction stent/graft deployment catheter comprising a low friction graft having an outer coating of a biocompatible lubricous material, such as Dow Coming's medical silicone 360 (360 is a Dow Corning product identifier) , and a delivery sheath having an inner coating of a biocompatible lubricous material, such as Dow Coming's MDX4-4159 (MDX4-4159 is a Dow Corning product identifier) .
  • a biocompatible lubricous material such as Dow Coming's medical silicone 360 (360 is a Dow Corning product identifier)
  • a delivery sheath having an inner coating of a biocompatible lubricous material, such as Dow Coming's MDX4-4159 (MDX4-4159 is a Dow Corning product identifier) .
  • FIG 1 is longitudinal cross section of a distal portion of a prior art stent/graft deployment catheter.
  • FIG 2 is longitudinal cross section of distal portion of an improved low friction stent/graft deployment catheter.
  • FIG 1 illustrates a longitudinal cross section of a coaxial prior art stent/graft deployment catheter.
  • Said catheter is comprised of a catheter body 10, a tip 50, an inner tube 40, a stent/graft 30, and a plunger 20, all of which are co-axial and have proximal and distal ends. Only a distal portion of the deployment catheter is shown for clarity.
  • the catheter body 10 has an inner surface 70 and is slidingly disposed about the inner tube 40.
  • the plunger 20 is slidingly disposed about the inner tube 40 and is slidingly disposed within the catheter body 10. The distal end of the inner tube 40 is attached to the tip 50.
  • the stent/graft 30 is slidingly disposed about the inner tube 40 and within the catheter body 10 and is between the proximal end of the tip 50 and the distal end of the plunger 20.
  • the stent/graft 30 has an outer surface 60 and a lumen 52 extending from its proximal end to its distal end.
  • the stent/graft lumen 52 is occupied by a distal portion 41 of the inner tube 40.
  • the stent/graft deployment catheter is inserted percutaneously or via a surgical cut-down method into a blood vessel.
  • the plunger 20 is held in place and the catheter body 10 is pulled away from the tip 50 exposing the entire stent/graft 30 to patient's blood.
  • the stent/graft 30 expands such that the diameter of the stent/graft lumen 52 is larger than the diameter of the tip
  • the expanded stent/graft 30 becomes fixed in place in the blood vessel and thus bridges the aneurysm.
  • the inner tube 40 is then pulled away from the stent/graft 30 such that the tip 50 passes through the lumen 52 of the stent/graft 30.
  • the deployment catheter is removed from the patient. As discussed above, friction between the catheter body 10 and the stent/graft 30 may require the surgeon to apply a great deal of longitudinal force to the plunger 20, to force the stent/graft out of the deployment catheter, which may damage the stent/graft 30.
  • FIG 2 illustrates a longitudinal cross section of an improved stent/graft deployment catheter. Only a distal portion of the deployment catheter is shown for clarity.
  • the improved stent/graft deployment catheter is physically identical to the prior art catheter except for the presence of two lubricous coatings.
  • a first coating 80 of a biocompatible lubricous material such as Dow Coming's MDX4-4159 (MDX4-4159 is a Dow Corning product identifier)
  • MDX4-4159 is a Dow Corning product identifier
  • a second coating 90 of a biocompatible lubricous material such as Dow Coming's medical silicone 360 (360 is a Dow Coming product identifier)
  • 360 is a Dow Coming product identifier
  • the stent/graft 30 is radially compressed to its maximum extent without fear that an increased stent/graft restorative force will increase friction between the inner surface 70 of the catheter body 10 and the outer surface 60 of the stent/graft 30. Accordingly, the entire deployment catheter can be made smaller than the prior art deployment catheter. Note that the use of a single coating, either on the stent/graft 30 or on the catheter body 10, is contemplated.
  • the inner surface 70 of the catheter body 10 is coated with MDX4-4159.
  • the stent/graft 30 is lubricated with Dow Coming's medical silicone 360. The stent/graft 30 is then compressed radially and is disposed about the distal portion 41 of the inner tube
