Abstract:
A stent includes a mesh wall including a plurality of filament crossings, the mesh wall defining at least a first stent section with a first diameter, a second stent section with a second diameter smaller than the first diameter, and a transition section where the mesh wall transitions from the second diameter to the first diameter. Each of the plurality of filament crossings has a braiding angle, and all braiding angles in each of the first stent section, the second stent section and the transition section are within 5 degrees of one another.
