Fully biodegradable stent (the fourth generation heart stent) is an implantable device, which can be used to open blocked blood vessels and restore blood flow to the heart like traditional metal drug-eluting stents. However, unlike the metal stent, the completely biodegradable stent is made of a special material. After opening the blocked blood vessel, it can be dissolved over time, leaving no metal stent in the patient's blood vessel, so that the blood vessel can recover more of its own functions and sports ability. The long-term benefits of stent autolysis and restoring blood vessels to a more natural state are very important. At present, the fourth generation stent surgery can only be performed in several famous foreign hospitals.
The medical staff of Hangzhou Wuzhou Hospital contacted Professor Carlo Di Mario for the patient and introduced the patient to the UK for this operation. In 2004, Professor Carlo Di Mario began the clinical trial of biodegradable stent surgery, and there are about 10 cases of such surgery every year, which enjoys a high reputation in the field of heart biodegradable stent implantation all over the world. The cost of biodegradable stent surgery in Royal Brompton Hospital is about 20,000 pounds. You can ask Hangzhou Wuzhou Company.
