Stroke is also called stroke, and stroke is a group of acute cerebrovascular diseases which take ischemic brain tissue and hemorrhagic injury symptoms as main clinical manifestations, and seriously jeopardizes the life health and the quality of life of the public due to the characteristics of high morbidity, high mortality, high disability rate, high recurrence rate, high economic burden and the like. At present, the incidence rate of stroke in China is rising at a speed of 8.7% per year, and the number of people dying from stroke in China exceeds the number of tumor and cardiovascular diseases per year, so that the disease becomes the first cause of death.

The stroke is divided into ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke, wherein the ischemic stroke accounts for 70 to 80 percent, in patients with ischemic stroke, the consequence caused by intracranial large vessel occlusion caused by various reasons is the most serious and has been the difficulty of treatment, and the current treatment methods comprise venous drug thrombolysis, arterial drug thrombolysis, intravascular mechanical thrombus extraction, combined use of a plurality of methods and the like. The artery and vein thrombolysis is a conventional method for treating acute ischemic stroke, but the method has high requirements on a treatment time window, strictly requires that a patient arrives in a hospital to receive related treatment within 3-4.5 hours from illness, has a plurality of limitations on medicines, and has low blood vessel recanalization rate of the acute ischemic stroke caused by the most serious large blood vessel occlusion.

Mechanical arterial thrombectomy devices have gained widespread attention because of the following advantages: rapid recanalization, lower bleeding conversion and a prolonged stroke intervention time window. Has satisfactory clinical effect on the revascularization of acute ischemic stroke caused by the occlusion of large blood vessels. Merci Retrieval (2004) and Penumbra string Systems (2008) were approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as first generation mechanical embolectomy devices.

The traction force of thestent body 100 is concentrated on the extension line where the pushing wire is located, and the tube diameter of thestent body 100 is guaranteed to be unchanged.

The developingdevice 108 is arranged on the stentproximal end 101, the stentdistal end 103, the stentspherical unit 104 and the stentspherical unit node 107 of thestent body 100, so that a doctor can judge the positions of thestent body 100 and thrombus in the embolectomy operation process, and can judge the expansion condition of the stent spherical unit after thestent body 100 is released, thereby improving the embolectomy success rate.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, the contact area between thestent rod 106 of thestent body 100 and the blood vessel is small, the contact area with the thrombus is large, and meanwhile, the mesh structure in the middle area of the cross section of thestent body 100 ensures that the thrombus can be effectively captured while the stimulation of thestent body 100 to the inner wall of the blood vessel is reduced, the escape probability of the thrombus is reduced, the recanalization rate of the blocked blood vessel is increased, and the success rate of the operation is increased.

Thestent body 100 may be made of a nickel-titanium material or a polymer material, specifically, may be formed by laser cutting a nickel-titanium tube, or may be formed by laser cutting a nickel-titanium plate and then crimping and heat setting, or may be further formed by weaving a nickel-titanium wire, or may be formed by processing an elastic plastic material.
