    • A method of treating vulnerable plaque comprising intentionally damaging or rupturing the vulnerable plaque using a wingless balloon which is inflated from a wingless unexpanded diameter to a limited expanded diameter. This process produces significant increase in ECM synthesis at the site of the damage or rupture. As a result, the method strengthens the vulnerable plaque while minimizing or avoiding damage to the surrounding wall of the body lumen or damaging a stable plaque mistakenly believed to be a vulnerable plaque. The method of the invention is particularly useful in treating a fibroatheroma type of vulnerable plaque. In one embodiment, the balloon is self-limiting such that it expands compliantly at initial inflation pressures, and above nominal pressure it expands noncompliantly. In an alternative embodiment, the balloon is inflated using a diameter-limiting device, such as a device which limits the inflation pressure or the volume of inflation fluid in the balloon.
    • 一种治疗易损斑块的方法,包括使用从无翅未膨胀直径膨胀至有限扩张直径的无翼气球故意破坏或破裂易损斑块。 该过程在损伤或破裂部位产生ECM合成的显着增加。 因此,该方法可加强易损斑块,同时最大限度地减少或避免对体腔周围壁的损害或损坏被认为是易损斑块的稳定斑块。 本发明的方法特别可用于治疗纤维腺瘤型易损斑块。 在一个实施例中,气囊是自限制性的,使得其在初始充气压力下顺应地膨胀,并且在额定压力之上,其膨胀不顺利。 在替代实施例中,使用直径限制装​​置(例如限制气囊中的充气压力或膨胀流体的体积的装置)使球囊膨胀。
