ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a device for compressing tubular endoprostheses and for inserting a compressed endoprosthesis into an application tube. A device that is simple to handle and can be used to the fullest possible extent without manual contact with the endoprosthesis is characterized, according to the invention, by a tubular prosthesis receptor consisting of at least two parts that can move with respect to one another and with its inner lumen in the closed state equal to the outer diameter of the compressed endoprosthesis, and by a folding tool that can be inserted into the prosthesis receptor with the endoprosthesis to form a lengthwise fold aimed inward in the endoprosthesis.
