Stent, has segments formed by meander-shaped rod with opposite meander sheets from flexible material in contracted starting position, where fine structure of rods overlaid basic structure in form of compensation loop formed into sheets

摘要

The stent has a base body that radially expands from a contracted initial position into an expanded supporting position, and a set of carrier segments (1) are circulated in a circumferential direction and arranged to each other in an axial direction. The segments are formed by a meander-shaped rod (2) with alternating opposite meander sheets (3) from a flexible material in the contracted starting position. A fine structure of the rod overlaid the basic structure in the form of a compensation loop formed into the Meander sheets. The material includes polymers.
