ABSTRACT:
The invention generally relates to an intraluminal medical device, that is to say a device intended to be implanted in a passage in the body. This device has a substantially "filiform" structure with elongated legs (11) which have no hooks for anchoring them to the passage. These legs comprise two portions (11a, 11b). The first portion (11a) which bears against the passage has a flattened and substantially solid surface. At right-angles to the main axis (13) of the device, the maximum dimension of the second portion (11b) is less than that of the first portion.
Application particularly to temporary/definitive filters.
