Abstract
A vascular stent to be implanted in a vessel of a living body to scaffold the vessel from inside is provided. The stent includes a tubular body formed by assembling a plurality of tubular-body forming elements constituting a part of a tubular body. The tubular-body forming elements are formed by bending a strand made of a biodegradable polymer such that legs as linear parts and bend parts alternate in sequence, to form a single flow channel from one end to the other end. The plurality of tubular-body forming elements constitute the tubular body by connecting and unifying two connecting members by melt welding, each of the connecting members being attached to adjacent portions of the plurality of tubular-body forming elements.
