The Merit EndoTek AEROmini tracheobronchial stent system is comprised of two components: The radiopaque self-expanding nitinol stent and the delivery system. The stent is completely covered with a biocompatible polyurethane membrane. The stent expansion results from the physical properties of the metal and the proprietary geometry. The stent is designed with a constant diameter throughout its entire length. The overall stent geometry is designed to maintain a constant length over the entire range of possible diameters. As a result of this unique design the stent has virtually no foreshortening, thus facilitating the selection of the appropriate stent length.
