ABSTRACT:
A synthetic liner is inserted into a blood vessel in the region of a treated stenosis. The liner is composed of a material resistant to the deposition of the fatty matter from the blood so that the build up of a new obstruction to blood flow is inhibited. The liner is tapered to generally conform to the taper or reduction in cross section of the artery in a downstream direction. The material is resilient and has elasticity compatible with the elasticity of the artery.
