Abstract

For the better anchoring of a stent in its use area within a vessel, in the case of a stent expandable from a radially contracted introduction state into a radially expanded position state, in the radially expanded state at least one front end of the stent has a greater diameter than the remaining main stent body with ribs of the front end being longer than those in the main stent body.
