ENDOPROSTHESIS COATING

An endoprosthesis, such as a stent, includes anchoring regions formed of polymer that enhance adherence of a coating, e.g. a drug eluting polymer coating, to a stent surface, e.g. made of ceramic. The anchoring regions can be formed using stamping processes. L'invention concerne une endoprothès...

More Information
Summary:An endoprosthesis, such as a stent, includes anchoring regions formed of polymer that enhance adherence of a coating, e.g. a drug eluting polymer coating, to a stent surface, e.g. made of ceramic. The anchoring regions can be formed using stamping processes. L'invention concerne une endoprothèse, telle qu'un stent, comprenant des régions d'ancrage en polymère qui améliorent l'adhérence d'un revêtement, par exemple, un revêtement polymère éluant un médicament, à la surface du stent, par exemple, en céramique. Les régions d'ancrage peuvent être formées par des procédés de poinçonnage.
