Provided is a thin, narrow tube for use in a biodegradable medical device formed from a round tube made of a magnesium material as the base material, in which a desired outer diameter and an inner diameter are provided with good precision over the entire region in a longitudinal direction and a circumferential direction, and the length of biodegradation time can be controlled without changing a material composition. The thin, narrow tube is a thin, narrow tube of a biodegradable medical device, in which the thin, narrow tube is a round tube made of crystals containing magnesium (Mg) having a hexagonal crystal structure, and when the crystals forming the round tube are viewed in a round tube axis direction of the round tube, a hexagonal basal plane (0001) is oriented at a predetermined inclination angle with respect to a circumferential direction perpendicular to a radial direction (a direction from an inner surface to an outer surface) of the round tube. |
