The present invention includes: an expandable, tubular shaped prosthesis having first and second ends and a wall surface disposed between the first and second ends, the wall surface being formed by a plurality of intersecting elongate members; and a catheter, having an expandable, inflatable portion associated therewith and including means for mounting and retaining the expandable tubular shaped prosthesis on the expandable, inflatable portion, whereby upon inflation of the expandable, inflatable portion of the catheter, the prosthesis is formed radially outwardly into contact with the body passageway. The articulation in the form of a rounded wire frame loop connects similar stent bodies. Also, rounded open connectors and shortened cells in the stent allow for greater flexibility.

La présente invention comprend : un prothèse extensible de forme tubulaire ayant une première et une deuxième extrémités et une paroi disposée entre la première et la deuxième extrémités, ladite paroi étant formée par de nombreux éléments allongés entrecroisés; et un cathéter ayant une partie extensible gonflable associée avec celui-ci et comportant des mécanismes pour fixer et retenir la prothèse extensible de forme tubulaire sur l'élément extensible gonflable, de sorte que, à la suite du gonflement de l'élément extensible gonflable du cathéter, la prothèse soit formée radialement vers l'extérieur en contact avec le conduit de l'organisme. L'articulation, ayant la forme d'un anneau de fil de fer arrondi, relie les parties semblables du stent. En outre, des raccords arrondis ouverts et des cellules réduites dans le stent confèrent une plus grande souplesse.
