A method for manufacturing a stent comprising coating a stent body in an elastomeric material to form an elastomeric film coating over exterior and interior surfaces of the stent body over a longitudinal length thereof, the stent body comprising a plurality of structural members connected to one another with openings formed between at least a portion of the structural members, and the elastomeric film coating extending over the openings and the structural members. The coating may be cured afterwards. A stent constructed with this method is also described. |
