A stent in the form of a generally tubular body has multiple annularly expandable serpentine elements. The serpentine elements have arcs at the first and second element ends which point in the axial direction of the stent. Annularly expandable serpentine elements which follow one another in the axial direction are connected to one another via connectors which are arranged at the ends of the adjacent elements. The connectors extend in the circumferential direction of the stent in the non-expanded state of the stent and have a curvature in the circumferential direction. In the expanded state of the stent, the curvature is so great in the circumferential direction that the connectors project radially outward beyond the circumference of the serpentine elements. |
