An implant comprising a perforated, preferably hollow-cylindrical basic structure which has at least one section, wherein in each section at least one strut is arranged. In order to achieve a more homogenous coverage of the wall of the treated vessel, a good interlock with the wall of the treated body cavity and a better distribution of the mechanical stresses and elongations, the strut has a multiplicity of identical, simple and interconnected elements, the basic shape of which is substantially similar to the shape of base line elements of an imaginary first order base line which likewise runs in the section, wherein the imaginary first order base line represents a reference line for the arrangement of the elements and the elements are not more than half the size of the base line elements.
