A covered self-expanding stent (20) can be restrained against axial movement with a pusher (40) within the lumen of the stent that carries a spiral of wire (48) that provides protrusions that are accommodated within a luminal covering layer (24) radially inside the stent body. The protrusions distribute the stress over the full length of the stent. The pusher can be removed from the stent lumen by "unscrewing" the spiral relative to the covering layer (24). When the stent expands, the pusher can be withdrawn proximally, out of the stent lumen, without any need for rotatory movement.

L'invention concerne un drain tuteur couvert à auto-déploiement (20) dont le mouvement axial peut être empêché par un pousseur (40) à l'intérieur de la lumière dudit drain, cette lumière transportant un fil en spirale. Ce fil comporte des éléments faisant saillie, disposés à l'intérieur d'une couche de recouvrement de lumière (24) de manière radiale autour du corps du drain tuteur. Lesdits éléments faisant saillie répartissent la contrainte sur toute la longueur du drain tuteur. Le pousseur peut être retiré de la lumière du drain tuteur par <= dévissage >= de la spirale par rapport à la couche de recouvrement (24). Lorsque le drain tuteur se déploie, le pousseur peut être retiré de manière proximale, en dehors de la lumière du drain tuteur, sans avoir à effectuer de mouvement de rotation.
