Abstract
A new type of stent was invented using a Nitinol wire. The hoop strength of the new stent was found to be 2 times larger than that of the Cragg or Memotherm stents. However, the longitudinal flexibility of the new stent was inferior to both the Cragg and Memotherm stents. This new stent seems to be useful or the treatment of stenosis with straight configuration, but need to be improved or use in tortuous stenotic region. The stent was applied to the patients with esophargeal stenosis and showed a good result.
