Abstract: The present invention relates to an implant, in particular an intraluminal endoprothesis, comprising a body containing a metallic material, and comprising at least one functional element that is fastened to the body and has a material composition in at least a portion of its volume that differs from the material of the body, the material composition preferably including radio-opaque and/or x-ray opaque material. To effectively prevent accelerated degradation due to the formation of a local cell of the material of the body and the functional element, the at least one functional element includes a first layer at least in the region of its surface where it is bonded to the body, the first layer primarily containing at least one metal oxide. Furthermore, the manufacture of an implant of this type is described.

Abstract: A method for producing a semifinished part (20) for an implant, in particular for an intraluminal endoprosthesis, which comprises the following steps: a) providing a first sleeve (11) from a first metallic material and at least one second sleeve (12, 13) from a second metallic material, b) arranging the first sleeve (11) and the at least one second sleeve (12, 13) into one another in such a manner that the sleeve combination (10) forms at least a press fit between said sleeves, and c) forming the sleeve combination (10) at an increased temperature by means of extrusion. The invention further includes a method for producing an implant, to a corresponding semifinished part or a corresponding implant, respectively.
