Stent comprising a retaining element

A stent to be positioned by an attending physician in a bifurcation/branching of a blood vessel, wherein the stent is composed of a plurality of meshes and has a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the stent is provided with a removable guidewire as a retaining element, the removable guidewire having one free distal end, said removable guidewire being passed from outside the stent through two oppositely arranged meshes of the plurality of meshes facing each other and situated at the proximal end of the stent such that the free distal end of the removable guidewire spreads out, protrudes from the stent and span an entire opening of the bifurcation/branching of the blood vessel to form a locking bar, thus preventing the stent from being pushed further into the bifurcation/branching of the blood vessel when the stent is fully within the bifurcation/branching of the blood vessel.
