Computational and experimental mechanical performance of a new everolimus-eluting stent purpose-built for left main interventions

Abstract Left main (LM) coronary artery bifurcation stenting is a challenging topic due to the distinct anatomy and wall structure of LM. In this work, we investigated computationally and experimentally the mechanical performance of a novel everolimus-eluting stent (SYNERGY MEGATRON) purpose-built f...
