Abstract

Un aparato para implantar en un paciente un artículo polimérico conformable que comprende un dispositivo (10) de catéter que comprende un vástago tubular alargado (11) que tiene una región distal, una región proximal, un lumen (13) que comunica con un miembro expandible (12) colocado cerca de la región distal del vástago (11), un emisor óptico (15) colocado cerca de la región distal del vástago (11), y un artículo polimérico (19) colocado sobre el dispositivo (10) de catéter en asociación con el miembro expandible (12), siendo el artículo polimérico (19) capaz de hacerse suficientemente uido por absorción de radiación electromagnética para ser moldeable mediante el miembro expandible (12) desde una primera forma a una segunda forma, caracterizado porque el artículo polimérico (19) contiene un cromóforo en una cantidad suficiente para absorber una radiación suficiente procedente de un emisor óptico (15) para ablandar al menos una porción del artículo polimérico (19) hasta el punto que llegaa hacerse conformable, y el espectro de emisión del emisor (15) y el cromóforo se igualan, de forma que, junto con la disposicióncompleta, el artículo polimérico (19) puede volverse suficientemente uido para moldearse dentro del paciente sin dañar el tejido que rodea al artículo.
