Abstract:
A stent and method for treating an end of a pre-woven stent is provided. The method includes providing a pre-woven stent including a plurality of sharp ends. A pair of wire portions that extend in opposite helical directions around the stent are bent and woven into the stent to define a pair of overlapping crown portions. When the wires are woven into the stent a double weave portion of the stent is defined. The wires can be cut to define tail portions that are removed from the stent, leaving a single crown portion. The sharp ends can be alternatively treated by curving the ends to define rounded looped ends.

Claim (Index 23):
A medical device in the form of a woven stent comprising:\n a body defined by a plurality of wires extending in a first helical direction around the body and extending in a second helical direction around the body, the second helical direction being transverse to the first helical direction; wherein the plurality of wires are woven together to define a plurality of cells and a plurality of intersections; wherein the plurality of wires define a plurality of wire ends; wherein the plurality of wire ends are each curved into a rounded looped end to define a first end of the woven stent.
