ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an intralumenal stent device made up of two or more elements. Each element has undulations forming peaks and valleys and is formed from a repeating series including a long segment, a first midsized segment, a short segment, and a second midsized segment. These elements are aligned on a common axis and are connected directly to an adjacent element by a connection. The stent incorporates the advantages of having both long and short segments into a single element.
