Implant, system formed of an implant and a catheter, and method for producing such a system
First Claim
1. An implant preassembly comprising:
- an intraluminal endoprosthesis that can adopt a compressed state and an expanded state;
a first shaft over which a proximal end of the endoprosthesis is arranged in the compressed state, wherein the first shaft has a first connection portion configured for connection to an inner shaft of a catheter and a second connection portion at a distal end for connection with a conical portion; and
a second shaft slidably positioned over the first shaft that slides distally to compress a distal portion of the endoprosthesis independent of connection of the implant preassembly to the catheter.

Abstract
An implant (10, 10′, 10″, 10″), in particular an intraluminal endoprosthesis, with an open-worked, hollow cylindrical and/or hollow conical main structure (11), wherein the main structure (11) can adopt a compressed state or an expanded state. To simplify final assembly by the doctor, a first tubular shaft (16, 16′) is additionally provided, on the outer face of which the main structure (11) is arranged in the compressed state, at least in portion, wherein the first shaft (16, 16′) has a first connection portion (20, 23), with which the first shaft (16, 16′) can be connected to the inner shaft (32, 32′, 32a, 32b) of a catheter (30, 30′, 30″). A corresponding system formed of an implant of this type and of a catheter (30, 30′, 30″) and a method for producing such a system.
