A method of making a stent which, when the stent is inserted in a fluid conduit of the human or animal body defines a flow lumen following a non- planar curve, the method comprising providing a tubular hollow structure having a longitudinally extending cavity and made of a shape memory material, modifying the shape of the hollow structure into a shape in which its longitudinally extending cavity follows a non-planar curve, heating the modified hollow structure to a temperature such that the modified shape is memorised by the shape memory material, and cooling the hollow structure.

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un stent, qui, lorsque le stent est inséré dans un conduit fluide du corps humain ou animal, définit une lumière d'écoulement suivant une courbe non planaire, le procédé consistant à utiliser une structure creuse tubulaire présentant une cavité se prolongeant longitudinalement et fabriquée dans un matériau à mémoire de forme, à modifier la forme de la structure creuse en une forme dans laquelle sa cavité se prolongeant longitudinalement suit une courbe non planaire, à chauffer la structure creuse modifiée jusqu'à une température telle que la forme modifiée est mémorisée par le matériau à mémoire de forme, et à refroidir la structure creuse.
