Summary

Coronary artery disease is often treated by implantation of permanent metallic stents.Coronary stents are required in the early healing phase after balloon dilatation but constitute a lifelong foreign body. New bioresorbable stents have been developed and are believed to improve long-term safety. The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and vessel healing after treatment of simple bifurcation lesions with the CE-marked bioresorbable stents Absorb and Desolve.
