Biodegradable stent

چکیده
The bare metal stent (BMS) used in the blood vessel caused the restenosis after the operation due to formation and proliferation of neointimal. Recently, as a method to overcome the problems of BMS, drug eluting stent (DES) is developed and being applied to human body which has drug reducing restenosis applied on the metal surface. DES has the advantage of greatly reducing the restenosis after the operation; however, metal stent remains in the body after the drug is released causing issues such as late thrombosis and restenosis so that currently the attention is increasing for biodegradable materials that reduce restenosis and thrombosis by degrading as a certain amount of time passes after the drug is released by the stent material. In this review, the study trend of biodegradable stent will be explained.

A randomized, open-label clinical trial using optical coherence tomography to compare two sirolimus-eluting stents, one with a biodegradable polymer and the other with a permanent polymer.
Intimal hyperplasia appears to differ after implanting a drug-eluting stent (DES) with a biodegradable or a permanent polymer. The aim of the present study was to compare biodegradable with permanent polymer DES, since the available data are limited. One hundred patients with de novo coronary artery stenosis were included in this study. The patients were classified into 2 groups: DES with a bio...
متن کاملPromoting endothelial recovery and reducing neointimal hyperplasia using sequential-like release of acetylsalicylic acid and paclitaxel-loaded biodegradable stents
INTRODUCTION This work reports on the development of a biodegradable dual-drug-eluting stent with sequential-like and sustainable drug-release of anti-platelet acetylsalicylic acid and anti-smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferative paclitaxel. METHODS To fabricate the biodegradable stents, poly-L-lactide strips are first cut from a solvent-casted film. They are rolled onto the surface of a metal...
متن کاملStent migration after stent-in-stent technique using a biodegradable stent.
Self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) seem to be the optimal choice for benign esophageal disorders, especially those not associated with a stricture, such as anastomotic leaks, iatrogenic perforations, and fistulas. On the other hand stent embedding can be an important limitation of SEMS placement, because this precludes safe stent removal [1]. In fact, in the literature there are only a few case...
متن کاملBiodegradable stents for the treatment of bowel strictures in Crohn's disease: technical results and challenges.
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS In patients with Crohn's disease, the idea of biodegradable stents for treatment of bowel strictures with limited effect of endoscopic balloon dilation is tempting and initial results have been promising. The aim of this study was to evaluate the technical and clinical success of biodegradable stents for treatment of inflamed Crohn's strictures refractory to endoscopic...
متن کاملNovel biodegradable polymer-coated, paclitaxel-eluting stent inhibits neointimal formation in porcine coronary arteries.
BACKGROUND Biodegradable polymer-coated stents may have positive effects on arterial healing, and reduce the need for prolonged antiplatelet therapy. AIM To assess the vascular effects of the biodegradable polymer proposed as a stent coating, as well as to evaluate inhibition of intimal hyperplasia by Biodegradable Polymer-Coated Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents (BP-PES, LUC-Chopin, Balton) in porci...
متن کاملClinical outcomes of biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stents for percutaneous coronary intervention: an updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stents (DES) are innovative concepts in the era of percutaneous coronary intervention. We systematically reviewed the latest randomized evidence on the efficacy and safety of biodegradable polymer DES as compared to durable polymer DES. MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane database were searched in August 2013 for eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comp...
