Abstract
An implant, intended to be detachably fixed or crimped on a portion or an outer surface of a catheter for being delivered to an implantation site, includes a longitudinal axis, or an inner space or inner volume longitudinally extending within the implant, and a radial direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, space or volume. The implant includes a first structural element having a first portion, a second structural element having a second portion, and one or more interconnecting elements arranged between the first and the second structural elements. In the implant, the first portion and/or the second portion is/are located less radially as regards the longitudinal axis, inner space, or volume than a third portion of the one or more interconnecting elements.
