摘要:
A method of percutaneously delivering a multi-layered stent assembly to a desiredimplantation location of a patient including the steps of radially compressinga multi-layered stent assembly to a compressed size for implantation in a patient,the multi-layered stent assembly including a first stent (52), a second stent(54) coaxially positioned within at least a portion of a length of the first stent,and a valve, wherein the first stent comprises at least one different materialproperty than the second stent. The method further includes delivering the multi-layeredstent assembly to the desired implantation location of the patient using a deliverysystem and substantially simultaneously expanding the first stent and the secondstent of the multi-layered stent assembly at the desired implantation locationto a radially expanded size that is larger than the compressed size.
