Abstract

A stent and method for manufacturing a stent comprising an expandable, generally tubular body portion in which one or both ends of the stem are provided with a generally rounded, smooth radiused portion that forms a bulbous protrusion out of the plane of the circumference of the stent. The design of the stent increases the profile of the end of the stent and decreases the risk of injury or vessel dissection during stent deployment.
