The invention relates to a thrombectomy device having a substantially cylindrical stent structure (1). The stent structure comprises a plurality of meshes (3 4) and also two connectors (5 5 ) that are disposed at different meshes (3) at the proximal end of the stent structure (1). The device also has a guide wire (2) which comprises a coupling element (11) to which the connectors (5 5 ) are coupled and a slit (7) which extends helically over the lateral face (8) of the stent structure (1) and a tensioning clip (9) that spans the slit (7) at the proximal end.
