Abstract

La présente invention concerne un stent (10) composé d'un treillis sensiblement cylindrique présentant une pluralité d'ouvertures. Une extrémité distale (10a) du stent présente un évidement périphérique externe (12) où la surface périphérique externe est dentelée radialement vers l'intérieur à une profondeur prédéterminée, et l'évidement périphérique externe (12) est formé à une profondeur constante le long de la direction périphérique de l'extrémité distale (10a). Une extrémité distale (10b) du stent (10) présente un évidement périphérique interne (14) où la surface périphérique interne est dentelée radialement vers l'extérieur à une profondeur prédéterminée, et l'évidement périphérique interne (14) est formé à une profondeur constante le long de la direction périphérique de l'extrémité proximale (10b). Lorsque deux stents (10) sont reliés entre eux, l'extrémité distale (10a) d'un stent (10) est insérée dans l'extrémité proximale (10b) de l'autre stent (10), qui a été précédemment à demeure, et le procédé périphérique interne (14) de l'extrémité proximale (10b) et l'évidement périphérique externe (12) de l'extrémité distale (10a) sont mis en prise l'un avec l'autre.
