Abstract

Abstract Recently, bioresorbable vascular scaffolds have emerged as an alternative to metallic stents since the need for mechanical support for the healing artery is temporary, and beyond the first few months there are potential disadvantages of a permanent metallic prosthesis. However, intrinsic properties related to its design and composition have resulted in some peculiarities about their deployment. In the present article, we briefly address a few aspects related to bioresorbable vascular scaffolds implantation.
