Moving away from metal: Step toward the future with bioresorbable vascular scaffolds and novel antiproliferative agents
Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common source of morbidity and mortality globally and is expected to raise increase in prevalence. Many endovascular techniques exist to manage PAD; however, there remains room for improvement, especially as it relates to below-the-knee vessels. Rec...

description | Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common source of morbidity and mortality globally and is expected to raise increase in prevalence. Many endovascular techniques exist to manage PAD; however, there remains room for improvement, especially as it relates to below-the-knee vessels. Recent evidence and devices are leading to a resurgence of interest in bioresorbable vascular scaffolds and the -limus family of antiproliferative drugs in the PAD treatment space. Methods: This nonsystematic review examines emerging technology for treatment of PAD with a specific focus on below-the-knee vessels and bioresorbable vascular scaffolds. Additional emerging and early technology such as novel delivery platforms are also briefly discussed with directions of future research highlighted. Results: Bioresorbable vascular scaffold biomechanics and history are highlighted. Foundational knowledge of antiproliferative agents and evolving agents in peripheral vascular disease are also described. Conclusions: Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds are an additional endovascular tool for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease. The integration with an antiproliferative agent may result in improved patency and performance; however, there is a paucity of data in the literature at present. |
