The obstruction of the trachea can reduce the oxygen intake causing dyspnea, hypoxemia, or even death from suffocation. The treatment of this type of stenosis is complicated and usually involves surgical approaches. In addition, stenting is considered a palliative treatment to provide immediate relief improving patient’s quality of life. Different polymeric and metallic stents are clinically available. However, for the cases where the anatomy deviates from the norm, such as for unusual sizes, or when tumors are stiffer than any stent available, customized stents are needed. Additive manufacturing processes are being used to manufacture customized products, including medical devices. In this sense, this book aims to study and analyze the development of an new customized polymeric stent using additive technologies.nAs an activity to divulgate the results of the IREBID project (FP7-PEOPLE-2009-IRSES-247476), based on improving collaborations and knowledge exchange between medical and technological sectors, the consortium decided to prepare a collection of books about the development of new medical devices. The aim of this collection is to bring the expertise generated within the IREBID project to all stakeholders.n
