Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method for manufacturing a stent having a superior bending characteristic, in which a basic jig is employed to weave wires by alternating an obtuse angle and an acute angle so as to repetitively form starry cells in left and right portions and upper and lower portions of the stent, and in which the wires intersecting each other in the starry cells are allowed to freely move to provide the superior bending characteristic caused by flexibility in both the diametrical direction and lengthwise direction thereof, and the stent manufactured thereby. Thus, the stent can have a flexible bending characteristic and is prevented from being folded even when sharply bent after being coated.
