Abstract
An individually tailored endovascular stent graft device and procedure is for performing a no-cut repair of different aneurysm types: ascending, descending, arch, abdominal and cerebral aneurysms. Many aneurysm types can thus be treated without the need for open heart surgery. The stent may be biomaterial based (collagen-based in the preferred embodiment). No shape-memory metals need be used therefore allowing better implantation flexibility and better patient recovery. The stent may be fixated in the designated treatment area by remotely activating individually capsulated bicomponent biological glue by UV light/ultrasound means, wherein each component of the glue is coated separately. Further presented is a method for calculating stent graft implantation path by determining the sequence of implantation points through computer simulation means, wherein the implantation is done by discrete pulses.
