About
Percutaneous treatment of coronary artery disease depends on the implantation of stents within diseased coronary segments. Compared with conventional bare-metal and drug- eluting stents, which remain permanently within the coronary anatomy, bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) offer several potential advantages due to its resorbable properties. The resorbable magnesium scaffold Magmaris has demonstrated favourable outcomes in patients with stable coronary artery disease. In particular, in comparison to polymeric bioresorbable scaffolds, no cases of stent thrombosis have been reported in over two years of follow-up suggesting that magnesium-based resorbable scaffolds have low thrombogenicity and might be particularly beneficial for patients presenting with ST- segment myocardial infarction. A recent pilot study in eighteen patients supports this concept, which has led to the development of the proposed prospective multicentre study including intra-coronary imaging with long-term clinical follow-up.
