Summary

The registry aims to evaluate the safety, performance and efficacy of the Everolimus-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) system following rotational atherectomy in patients with complex de novo native coronary artery lesions in all-day clinical practice.

Detailed description

Bioresorbable scaffolds are transient implants. They act like drug-eluting metallic stents (DES) during the first 3 months by supporting the vessel wall thereby keeping the artery patent. Subsequently, resorption of the scaffold begins and its structure loosens. As a result of everolimus release, neointimal growth is inhibited similar to DES. Finally the implant is reabsorbed completely in about 2-3 years. BVS in terms of late stent thrombosis may be safer than DES. Transiently scaffolded vessels may regain their natural curvature and angulation as well as response to nitroglycerine and endothelial function.
