METHODS OF MANUFACTURE OF BIORESORBABLE AND DURABLE STENTS WITH GROOVED LUMENAL SURFACES FOR ENHANCED RE-ENDOTHELIALIZATION

摘要

Methods of making bioabsorbable stents with grooved lumenal surfaces for enhanced re-endothelialization are disclosed. Methods include molding grooves on the lumenal surface of coated bioresorbable and durable stents. Methods further include molding grooves on lumenal surfaces of a bioresorbable tube and forming a scaffold from the tube.
