Abstract

An implant capsule (10) and an implant delivery system are disclosed. The implant capsule (10) includes, sequentially from a proximal end to a distal end, a flexural section (102, 102a-102e), a reinforcement section (101, 101a-101e) and a radiopaque reinforcement ring (104a-104e). The reinforcement section (101, 101a-101e) has higher strength than the flexural section (102, 102a-102e). The implant delivery system includes the implant capsule (10). The implant capsule (10) can ensure the implant to be deployed in a coaxial condition and prevent over-expansion due to large expansion forces exerted by a stent of the implant.
