Abstract:
Full-length 15 mm Palmaz-Schatz coronary stents currently come premounted in a specially designed stent delivery system. A method is described for obtaining a bare half-stent from this system and mounting it onto a balloon catheter. The technique of half-stent delivery and implantation is discussed and is illustrated by a case example.
