ABSTRACT:
A prosthesis which can be implanted in a human or animal duct to ensure a passageway in the duct. The prosthesis is formed from several filaments which have corrugations and which are wound to define a tubular surface. The corrugations form an advantageously zig-zagged series of rings that are stepped along the length of the prosthesis, with corrugated portions of the individual filaments constituting portions of two or more separate ones of the rings.
