[TECHNIQUE OF EXPERIMENTAL STENTING OF VESSELS FOR INVESTIGATIONS IN VIVO]

Introduction of a new systems for the vessels stenting into clinical practice demands conduction of preclinical investigations in vivo. The method of vascular stents implantation into abdominal aorta of a rabbit, using peripheral vascular catheter, was presented. Successively were presented surgical aspects of the vessels stenting in experiment, estimation of functional state of the heart and aorta, morphometric indices of the stent in 30 days after operation. Introduction of the method depicted permits to simplify a surgical technique, to minimize the expanses for conduction of interventions on vessels in experiment. The method do not demand application of special endovascular equipment and may be successfully realized in environment of the general surgery operation room for conduction of experimental investigations on the stends.
