Abstract
The present invention relates to a system for inserting a self-expanding stent into a vessel of the body, with a proximal area and a distal area, and with a self-expanding stent which has a hollow cylindrical body with a proximal end and a distal end. At least the proximal end has meshes. The system further comprises a detachable fixing system for the proximal end of the stent, for inserting the stent into the vessel, wherein the fixing system consists of a wire-like element which has a first end and a second end, and a portion lying between these, and by which the meshes can be converted from an expanded state to a compressed state for inserting the stent into the vessel.
