Abstract:
Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds(BVS) are new treatment strategies of percutaneous coronary intervention. They have been introduced to overcome limitations of bare metal stents (BMS) and drug-eluting stents(DES), since they provide temporary scaffolding and then disappear, liberate the treated vessel from cage. In this article, we review the current status and problems of BVS, various tests required before gaining regulatory approval for clinical use.
