    Abstract: A disclosure provides a removable intraluminal stent for treating injuries or other conditions inside a body lumen. The stent can include a seam, such as a helical seam, for supporting the structure of the stent, which can be unseamed, for example, during removal of the stent from a lumen. The stent can include an elongated tubular member, or stent body, for positioning inside a lumen. The stent can be flexible and can include one or more other stent components coupled to the body. The stent can be formed from an obliquely-angled-parallelogram-shaped sheet. The stent can include a peripheral wire, which can be memory shape-retaining wires, for coupling the stent in place and/or a longitudinal support wire for supporting one or more components of the stent.
