Excerpt

My personal perspective about intravascular stents has been for the most part very positive. From its humble beginnings in the late ‘70s the stent become a major therapeutic resource and has achieved worldwide application. However, some disappointments in the last few years dampened my early unbridled enthusiasm. In my view, during its third decade of life the stent evolution has been hampered by unfulfilled goals. I think this is related to a recent change in attitudes and perceptions by government, industry, the media, and people in general. …
