Abstract

Symptomatic coronary artery disease can be treated with medication, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). However, each of these approaches does have its limitations. At present, several other developments for the treatment of coronary artery disease are under investigation such as laser therapy, artherectomy, and stenting of the coronary arteries. The clinical experience of coronary stenting is limited and does not exceed 600 implants. In this chapter the value and limitations of the implantation of intracoronary stents will be discussed. Further, experiences in test animals with a recently developed stent will be presented.
