Abstract
An intravascular stent 11 has an elastic self-expandable cylindrical stent proper 12. The stent proper 12 is connected to metal support wires 18 that are long enough to reach outside of the body of a patient through a catheter 31. Manipulation of the support wires 18 pushes the stent proper 12 into a blood vessel from within the catheter, thereby allowing it to expand there, and then contracts and retracts the stent proper 12 into the catheter 31, repeatedly.
