Abstract
In embodiments there is described a cardiovascular tube-shaped lockable and expandable bioabsorbable scaffold having a low immunogenicity manufactured from a crystallizable bioabsorbable polymer composition or blend.
Claims17
A flexible scaffold formed from expansion-crystallizable bioabsorbable polymer material comprising:
- a first sinusoidal strut pattern comprising a series of sinusoids;
- a nested hoop structure;
- and
- a second sinusoidal strut pattern comprising a series of, said sinusoids of said second sinusoidal strut pattern being shifted from about 0° to about 180° with respect to said sinusoids of said first sinusoidal strut pattern;
- and
- when fully expanded, the first and second sinusoidal strut patterns maintain a sinusoidal shape and the nested hoop structure forms a hoop structure.
