Medical implant and method for producing medical implant

摘要

The invention relates to a medical implant, particularly a stent, having a wall (11) braided out of multiple wires (10a, 10b) said wall extending along a longitudinal axis L and curving around the longitudinal axis L at least in sections, wherein in each case at least two wire ends (12) of the wires (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) are connected to at least two first braid ends (13a, 13b) forming a first circumferential section (16a) of the wall (11) extending around the longitudinal axis L. The invention is characterised in that in each case at least two first braid ends (13a, 13b) are connected to one or more second braid ends (14a, 14b), wherein the second braid ends (14a, 14b) form a second circumferential section (16b) of the wall (11) extending around the longitudinal axis L and following the first circumferential section (16a) in sequence in the longitudinal direction or the second braid ends (14a, 14b) are arranged in the circumferential direction U of the wall (11).

主权项

1. A medical implant, comprising:
a stent wall including a circumferential section, wherein the circumferential section includes:
a first section formed by wires, the first section extending along a longitudinal axis of the stent wall, anda second section formed by a braid formed by braiding the wires, the second section extending along the longitudinal axis and curving around the longitudinal axis,wherein ends of the wires of the first section are connected to an end of the braid of the second section.
