Abstract
A stent system includes a stent and a drawstring for removal of the stent. The drawstring includes an end string, a longitudinal string and a circumferential string. The end string is formed in an end of the stent body in an annular shape in such a way that the end string passes, in a zigzag manner, through mesh arranged in a circumferential direction of the stent body. A hook loop is formed by tying opposite ends of the end string to each other. The longitudinal string extends at a first end thereof from the end string in the longitudinal direction of the stent body. The circumferential string extends from a second end of the longitudinal string and is formed in an annular shape in such a way that the circumferential string passes, in a zigzag manner, through mesh arranged in the circumferential direction of the stent body.
