Abstract

See full text

Stents implantable within a body vessel include a strut with a receiving surface. The receiving surface has two openings passing through this surface. A radiopaque marker has a first prong received at least in part by one of the openings and a second prong received at least in part by the other opening. Approaches and methods are provided for enhancing engagement of the marker to the strut to prevent unintentional removal or dissociation of the marker from the strut.
