Abstract:
A fine performed coronary artery stent is characterized by excellent biocompatibility, proper expansion ratio, adequate flexibility and complaisance, easy to sterilization, and controllable microenvironment, which can promote the growth of adhered cells. The main question need to be considered in coronary artery stent application is blood and tissue compatibility. Coronary artery stent bring a hope for patients with coronary artery disease by inhibiting intimal hyperplasia, and decreasing occurrence of dangerous complication. However, as a kind of foreign body, the stent implantation is closely associated with complication, such as ventricular fibrillation, acute vascular occlusion, side-branch occlusion, vessel dissection, coronary artery spasm or perforation, vasovagal reflex and immune reaction. Therefore, various complications should attract more attention in treating coronary artery disease with stent implantation.
