A stent including a stent body constructed of a pattern of filaments, and having a side aperture defined by a contour of a loop constructed of at least one filament connected to the rest of the filaments by filament struts, the stent body being expandable to an expanded configuration wherein the loop and the filament struts expand outwards from the rest of the stent body. In the expanded configuration, the loop may expand in a translatory motion, radially outwards from the rest of the stent body. In a non-expanded configuration, the filament struts may lie generally flat with an outer contour of the stent, and in the expanded configuration, the filament struts may bend outwards of the stent at a non-zero angle with respect to the outer contour of the stent.
