Flexible bronchoscopic insertion of self-expanding metal stents in malignant tracheal lesions without fluoroscopic guidance

open access: yesThe Journal of Association of Chest Physicians, 2016
Background: Self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) are a well-accepted treatment modality for malignant tracheobronchial obstruction or malignant tracheoesophageal fistulae (TEFs). The traditional approach to SEMS insertion in central airway obstruction (CAO)

Influence of Surface Textures and Patterns Produced by Laser Ablation on Blood Compatibility of Stainless Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Laser surface texturing (LST) is explored for enhancing surface characteristics in biomedical applications, particularly cardiovascular stents. The study investigates the hemocompatibility of various textured surfaces on 316 stainless steel using human blood, revealing significant effects on blood cell behavior.

Exploring the Role of Stent Strut Geometry in Cellular Behavior: An In Vitro Chip Model to Understand In‐Stent Restenosis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
An engineered in vitro platform mimicking stent strut cross‐sectional shapes reveals how geometry influences cell behavior. Sharp‐cornered geometries promote cell proliferation and matrix alignment, while rounded shapes reduce these effects. The findings align with clinical outcomes and suggest intracellular tension as a key driver, offering a ...
