Abstract

An expandable bifurcated stent comprising a proximal end and a distal end in communication with one another. The proximal end comprises a primary passageway and the distal end comprises a pair of secondary passageways. The stent is expandable from a first, contracted position to a second, expanded position upon the application of a radially outward force exerted on the stent. Each of the primary passageway and the secondary passageway being constructed has a porous surface. A method for production of a bifurcated stent is also described. Preferably, the method comprises the step of connecting a first stent section to a second stent section, the first stent section having an end thereof adapted for connection to an opening disposed along the length of a second stent section.

29. The method defined in claim 16, comprising the further step of disposing at least one second flap portion at a periphery of the opening disposed along the length of the second stent section.
30. The method defined in claim 16, comprising the further step of disposing a pair of second flap portions at a periphery of the opening disposed along the length of the second stent section.
31. The method defined in claim 30, wherein, prior to the connecting step, at least one second flap portion is trimmed to a reduced size.
32. The method defined in claim 30, comprising the further step of overlapping the at least one second flap portion of the second stent section on to a portion of the first stent section.
33. The method defined in any one of claims 32, wherein the connecting step comprises welding the at least one second flap portion of the second stent section to the first stent section.
34. The method defined in claim 30, wherein, prior to the connecting step, at least one second flap portion is removed.
35. The method defined in claim 16, comprising the further steps of producing the second stent section by:
providing a pair of third stent section each third stent sections having an end thereof bevelled with respect to a longitudinal axis of the third stent section;
joining the pair of third stent sections in a complementary manner at each bevelled end thereof to provide a substantially V-shaped stent section; andremoving an apex portion of the V-shaped stent section to define the second stent section having an opening therein.
36. The method defined in claim 35, wherein the connecting step comprises connecting the end of the stent section to the opening defined in the V-shaped stent section.
37. The method defined in claim 16, wherein the connecting step comprises welding first stent section to the second stent section.
38. A method for production of a bifurcated stent comprising steps of:
passing a first stent section having a first opening disposed along a length thereof through a second stent section having a second opening disposed along a length thereof, the first stent section having a diameter less than a diameter of the second stent section;
passing a leading end of first stent section through the second opening of the second stent section; and substantially aligning the first opening and the second opening with respect to one another;
the first stent section and the second stent section being constructed of a tubular wall in the form of substantially cylindrical tube having preselected portions thereof removed to define a porous surface.
39. An expandable bifurcated stent comprising a proximal end and a distal end in communication with one another, the proximal end comprising a primary passageway and the distal end comprising a pair of secondary passageways, each secondary passageway in communication with the primary passageway at a first intersection, the stent being expandable from a first, connected position to a second, expanded position upon the application of a radially outward force exerted on the stent, each of the primary passageway and the secondary passageways having a porous surface, at least one connection portion interconnecting the pair of secondary passageways for reinforcing the first intersection.
