Biodegradable stents

Biodegradable stents are tiny, tube-shaped devices used to keep clogged arteries open. Made from special materials that can safely break down and dissolve in the body over time, they provide support during healing and then gradually disappear. This eliminates the need for a second surgery to remove the stent and reduces the risk of long-term complications associated with permanent implants. Biodegradable stents are designed to restore normal blood flow, promote natural artery healing, and improve patient outcomes, representing a significant advancement in minimally invasive cardiovascular treatments.
