摘要

Stent comprises a tubular support structure (2) made from joined ring segments (3, 4, 5) and twisted by a thread (11) with ends (12, 13) guided into the support structure via a deviating unit (14) and coupled by a connector (17). Preferred Features: The deviating unit is a deviating element provided on one ring segment or has two deviating elements arranged at a distance from each other on the periphery of the support structure. The deviating unit is arranged on the inner side of the ring segment (3) facing the center of the stent. Additional guiding elements are provided in the support structure.
