Preliminary report of a new type of braided vein stent in animals.

Conclusion The novel stent significantly increases the radial resistive force and does not increase vascular injury, thrombus and stent stenosis during 30-day and 90-day follow-up. The next step is to further validate the effectiveness of the stent through long-term animal observation and human clinical trials.
