8 MICRO-TECH
SUCCESSFUL APPLICATION IN PRACTICE

The signature TTS stent ends provide secure bridging

of stenoses and leaks in the trachea. The slightly spher-
ical design ensures a firm hold in any position, which is
reinforced by the radial expansion force of the Nitinol
wire, enabling the flexible adaptation of the stent to the
patient’s anatomy.

stent copy

Released tracheal stent

SPECIALLY BRAIDED STENT ENDS

The stent is made from Nitinol wire, which is both highly flexible and re-
tains its shape. The tips at the stent ends have an angle of less than 90°,
which holds them in place inside the tissue and minimizes migration.
The extraction thread also allows the stent to be repositioned for ideal
placement in any situation.

FULLY COVERED

The high-quality covering is particularly resilient and

elastic. It fits perfectly to the tracheal wall and ensures
reliable ventilation.

 FIVE DIAMETERS TO CHOOSE FROM

The self-expanding J-stent made of Nitinol is characterized by its excellent radiopacity,

as proven by the radiological images. X-ray markings at prominent positions on the stent
also improve orientation during release. After deployment, J stents assume efficient
expansion which in turn initiates their therapeutic success.
