<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a stent in the form of thin wall, multi-cell and tube structure. SOLUTION: The tube structure has a longitudinal axis and the stent is provided with the plurality of circumferential set of strut members. The respective sets of strut members are mutually longitudinally deviated and mutually linked by a longitudinally extended link. The respective sets of strut members close the stent and form a cylindrical portion. Further, each of sets of strut members is provided with a plurality of linked curved and inclined parts. Moreover, the sets of strut members include the top end set of strut members positioned on the top end of each of strut members and the central set of strut members positioned between the top end sets of strut members. The inclined part in the top end set of strut members has one center and two top ends. At least one of inclined parts in the top end sets of strut members includes a sharpened form, with which the width of one inclined part becomes wider on the center of the inclined part rather than the top end of the inclined part.</p> |
