Pathological changes after third-generation drug-eluting stent implantation remain unclear. We compared the tissue responses of coronary arteries after the implantation of third-generation abluminal biodegradable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (3rd EES) and second-generation durable-polymer EES (2...
