Stent grafts
A stent graft is a flexible, tubular device placed inside blood vessels to reinforce weak or damaged areas, such as aneurysms or tears. Made from durable materials like fabric and metal, it acts as a new pathway for blood flow, preventing rupture or further damage. The procedure is minimally invasive, often done through small incisions using imaging guidance. Stent grafts help stabilize blood vessels, reduce the risk of serious complications, and are commonly used in treating conditions like aortic aneurysms, offering a safer alternative to open surgery for many patients.
