Zusammenfassung:An intraluminal endoprosthesis such as a stent has a metallic supporting structure and a sleeve surrounding the supporting structure. The sleeve can include fibres which are applied to an outer side of the supporting structure. The fibres each have a polymer core and a hydrogel casing connected thereto. The sleeve can also be formed from a fibre mixture of polymer and hydrogel fibres.
