Abstract
The invention relates to a thrombectomy device with a substantially cylindrical stent structure (1), which has a multiplicity of meshes (3, 4) and two connectors (5, 5′) that are arranged on different meshes (3) at the proximal end of the stent structure (1), and with a guide wire (12), which has a coupling element (11) to which the connectors (5, 5′) are coupled, with a slit (7), which extends in a helical formation across the jacket surface (8) of the stent structure (1), and with a tensioning bow (9), which spans the slit (7) at the proximal end.
