Bioresorbable scaffolds with drug-eluting stents: do they entail a higher thrombosis risk?

Courtesy of Dr. Leiva. Bioresorbable scaffolds with drug-eluting stents (bioresorbable vascular scaffolds, BVS) have been added to the list of endovascular treatment options for coronary disease. The ABSORB III trial showed the non-inferiority of this stent type to everolimus-eluting metallic stents as regards target-lesion revascularization (TLR) at one year. However, reports have suggested a higher
