Bioresorbable Stent in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction. [PDF]

open access: yesPolymers (Basel), 2019
The exact causes of failure of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction are still unknown. A key to successful ACL reconstruction is the prevention of bone tunnel enlargement (BTE). In this study, a new strategy to improve the outcome of ACL reconstruction was analyzed using a bioresorbable polylactide (PLA) stent as a catalyst for the healing ...

BVS stent optimisation based on a parametric model with a multistage validation process

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2021
Developing new polymer-based bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) requires a new structural geometry, as these polymer materials are characterised by substantially lower stiffness than metallic alloys.

The Development of Design and Manufacture Techniques for Bioresorbable Coronary Artery Stents

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading killer of humans worldwide. Bioresorbable polymeric stents have attracted a great deal of interest because they can treat CAD without producing long-term complications.

Bioresorbable biliary stents: A step forward. [PDF]

open access: yesWorld J Clin Cases
The case report by Elsayed et al presented a multidisciplinary approach to treating recurrent biliary strictures following proximal bile duct injury. Bioresorbable biliary stents, an innovative option for managing biliary strictures in recent years, are a key part of this approach.

Pathological aspects of bioresorbable stent implantation [PDF]

open access: yesEuroIntervention, 2015
The treatment of obstructive coronary artery disease has been revolutionised by the advent of drug-eluting stent therapy. However, concerns remain about complications late after stent implantation including late stent thrombosis, hypersensitivity reactions and neoatherosclerosis.

Bioresorbable Stents [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2010
Usually elegant and sometimes ingenious, most innovations in interventional cardiology represent incremental advances. Quantum leaps are rare. A major transformation in practice occurred when bare metal stents (BMS) replaced balloon angioplasty, because stenting could scaffold intimal tears, reduce elastic recoil, and prevent negative remodeling.1 ...

Effects of constraint between filaments on the radial compression properties of poly (l-lactic acid) self-expandable braided stents

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2021
With the application of bioresorbable materials in self-expandable braided stent, current analytical model for radial compression property of the stent is not applicative if considering the constraint between the polymeric filaments. Poly (l-lactic acid)

Optical coherence tomography follow-up after bioresorbable in metallic and metallic in bioresorbable stenting: tackling in-stent restenosis in the era of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds: [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2015
A 63-year-old woman with stable angina underwent percutaneous coronary intervention of the left circumflex coronary artery (LCX) and the first obtuse marginal branch (OM1) with biolimus-eluting stents (BES) with the V-stenting technique ( Panels A and A ′). Seven months later due to recurrent angina repeat coronary angiography was performed …

CTA Evaluation of Bioresorbable Scaffolds versus Metallic Coronary Stents – a Feasibility Study

open access: yesJournal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2018
Background: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) presents important limits in in-stent restenosis (ISR) evaluation in case of metallic coronary stents, due to the artifacts determined by stent struts, which alter in-stent plaque analysis.

The Bioresorbable Stent in Perspective-How Much of an Advance is It? [PDF]

open access: yesInterv Cardiol, 2014
The novel idea of bioresorbable stent technology continues to fascinate the interventional community. This article aims to provide a concise and balanced overview of the available technology and clinical evidence. Both potentially positive and negative aspects of bioresorbable stents in different lesion subsets and clinical situations are discussed.
