Stent having improved stent design

摘要

The stent comprises meander-shaped struts (2, 2') disposed in a circumferential direction and arrayed on one another in an axial direction, and an axial connector (4) in the axial direction connecting the meander-shaped struts of two axially adjacent meandering curves (3, 3'). The stent has a base body circumscribing a cylindrical shape and radially expandable from a contracted starting position into a dilated support position. Each strut is meander-shaped in its coarse structure and made of a flexible biodegradable material. The axial connector connects an inside radius (6, 6'). The stent comprises meander-shaped struts (2, 2') disposed in a circumferential direction and arrayed on one another in an axial direction, and an axial connector (4) in the axial direction connecting the meander-shaped struts of two axially adjacent meandering curves (3, 3'). The stent has a base body circumscribing a cylindrical shape and radially expandable from a contracted starting position into a dilated support position. Each strut is meander-shaped in its coarse structure and made of a flexible biodegradable material. The axial connector connects an inside radius (6, 6') of a zenith point (5, 5') of a first meandering curve with a second meandering curve, and has a double-arm structure (10), which has three arms enclosing in the dilated support position at an angle of 90-180[deg] . The middle one of the three arms runs parallel to the axial direction.
