A balloon catheter is provided for the implantation of a stent in a mammalian duct or cavity, comprising an elongate distal section and an expandable first balloon accommodating the section, further comprising means for the supply of a pressure medium for the expansion of the balloon, and means for heating the pressure medium, the catheter being provided with an elongate stent mounted onto the balloon. The catheter contains second means for establishing outwardly directed expansion of the stent at a sight or location selected from the two ends of the stent so that the stent will remain in position as implanted after removal of the catheter from the duct or cavity; and a method for the implantation of a stent in a human prostatic urethra.
