Abstract

See full text

The disclosed stent comprises at least two support portions and at least one connecting portion which follow one another in the longitudinal direction of the stent. Each support portion has multiple openings in the wall of the tubular body and border elements which are formed by the tubular body and which surround the openings and together with said openings form support portion cells in the expanded state. Two support portions which are adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction are connected via a connecting portion lying between said support portions, and each of the mutually facing end faces of the adjacent support portions are formed by a row of end-face cells of the respective support portion. The connecting portion comprises connecting elements which are formed by the tubular body and which connect the mutually facing end faces of the two adjacent support portions.
