    Abstract: The invention concerns a metal object for medical or surgical use, such as a prosthesis, for example an endovascular prosthesis (called stent) for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, comprising a metal substrate whereof the surface is coated partly at least with a polysaccharide compound. The invention is characterised in that the polysaccharide compound is covalently bound, via a plurality of grafting arms, comprising each at least a silane unit, bound on one side to the metal substrate by an —O— metal bond, and on the other side, directly or indirectly, by a covalent —NH— bond, with the polysaccharide compound.
