Abstract
A stent including a plurality of loop stents connected by struts so that it bends uniformly as a whole.
A stent A including a plurality of loop stents 2 connected by a plurality of struts 3, the loop stents 2 each formed of a stent main wire 1 folded into a zigzag shape and joined at its ends, wherein the bending strength of each strut 3 is larger than the bending strength of the stent main wire 1.
