  • Composite stent with bioremovable ceramic flakes
    Patent number: 9155646
    Abstract: A biodegradable and/or bioabsorbable composite stent includes a bioabsorbable ceramic material dispersed and embedded in a biodegradable polymeric material. The bioabsorbable ceramic material is made of flakes that have a thin, flat shape. In one embodiment, the composite stent comprises a body of one or more layers of polymer alone coupled to layers of polymer in which the ceramic flakes are dispersed and embedded and the composite is coiled to form the stent.
