摘要:
The present embodiments provide a stent for use in a medical procedure that comprises a series of proximal apices disposed at a proximal end of the stent and a series of distal apices disposed at a distal end of the stent. In a first embodiment, a first proximal apex comprises a bore for receiving a trigger wire, and a second proximal apex, disposed adjacent to the first proximal apex, comprises at least one barb. In an alternative embodiment, a first proximal apex comprises a first bore and a second, adjacent proximal apex comprises a second bore, such that a single trigger wire may be disposed through the first and second bores to restrain the first and second proximal apices during delivery.
