Vascular response towards biodegradable sirolimus-eluting polymeric scaffolds in the porcine model

Vascular response towards biodegradable sirolimus-eluting polymeric scaffolds in the porcine model

In this study, PLLA-based sirolimus-eluting polymer scaffolds and permanent bare-metal stents (316L) were implanted interventionally into both common carotid arteries (CCA) of 6 female pigs via the left common iliac artery (8F-sheath). The pigs were administered dual antiplatelet drugs peroral start...
