these little marvels are inserted via the groin to create a artificial opening [ in my case, a valve in my heart.] I was able to watch the entire thing on an over head T.V. It is inserted and placed in position ; then opened, like an umbrella. Ever since. NO MORE Heart murmers; miraculous gadget; saved my life, I have at least 2 stents , could be 3, I dunno. A miracle of modern surgery.
