    Abstract: An endoprosthesis may include an expandable tubular framework expandable from a compressed state to an expanded state and include a plurality of strut rows, wherein adjacent strut rows define interstices spacing the adjacent strut rows apart, and a plurality of connectors extending across the interstices and interconnecting adjacent strut rows, at least some of the plurality of connectors defining a flexible hinge portion. The lengths of the interstices between adjacent strut rows may vary along the length of the expandable tubular framework. The plurality of connectors extend radially outward beyond an outer diameter of the plurality of strut rows in the expanded state. The plurality of connectors are configured to engage a wall of a body lumen in the expanded state to inhibit migration of the endoprosthesis subsequent implanting the endoprosthesis in the body lumen.

    Abstract: A stent of the present disclosure has a variable radial force along the longitudinal length of the stent. In particular, the radial force of the center is greater than the radial force of the ends of the stent. Without being bound by theory, the radial force is affected by the strut angle θ, the wall thickness t, the number of strut pairs, and combinations thereof. In one aspect of the present disclosure, the stent has a variable strut angle θ, a variable wall thickness t, and a variable number of strut pairs. By adjusting the strut angle θ, the wall thickness t, and the number of strut pairs of the serpentine bands, the stent will have a variable radial force without the need for additional processing steps.

    Abstract: An endoluminal stent and associated methods for placing the endoluminal stent in a lumen of a trachea of a patient. The stent includes an elongate framework having a first open end, a second open end opposite the first open end, and a lumen extending from the first open end to the second open end. The elongate framework includes a first edge extending from the first open end to the second open end, a second edge extending from the first open end to the second open end, and an opening between the first edge and the second edge extending from the first open end to the second open end such that the stent has a C-shaped cross-section. The stent may be implanted in a trachea with the opening positioned along a posterior wall of the trachea adjacent the trachealis muscle.

    Abstract: A fiber optics based locator system having a fiber optics portion configured to be advanced directly through a tortuous body passage of a patient without being advanced through the lumen of an independently formed delivery device. A light-emitting element, such as a diffuser, may be provided at the distal end of the system. The fiber optics are selected to transmit light to the light-emitting element capable of being detected through body tissue. For instance, the light-emitting element may be positioned within a first location within a patient, and may be sensed by a sensor positioned within a second location within a patient spaced apart from (e.g., within a different anatomical structure than) the first location. Various procedures may be performed by accessing a target site at or adjacent the first location from a position at or adjacent the second location.
