Conflict of Interest
•None for this presentation
Downside of Metallic Stents
1. Restenosis
• No longer a problem if optimal PCI accomplished.
• More frequent in Diabetes and Diffuse disease
• Still a problem in small vessels
Downside of Metallic Stents
2. Thrombosis
• Often a devastating clinical event
• Mostly prevented by optimal PCI technique and adequate DAPT.
• More prevalent in patients with acute coronary syndrome, complex lesions and long stents
Downside of Metallic Stents
3. Neo Atherosclerosis
• Develops in BMS and DES
• Plaque rupture/thrombosis can lead to STEMI.
• Appears not be related to hyperlipidemia (inflammatory?).
• At this time, an unpredictable event (specially now that routine NI testing is no longer approved).
Downside of Metallic Stents
4. Stent Fracture
• Occurs in up to 17% of patients (CT data)
• Can develop aneurysm, restenosis, acute thrombosis
Downside of Metallic Stents
5. Eliminates physiologic vasomotion of the coronary artery.
• Issue for athletes (hyper thrombogenicity of exercise).
• Associated with neoatherosclerosis
Advantage of Spot Stenting
The less metal in the coronary artery, the less chance of:
• restenosis,
• thrombosis,
• stent fracture,
• neoatherosclerosis,
• inhibition of physiologic vasomotion.
Stent should be used for the short segment of 90% stenosis and leaving the 50% borders unstented. Medical therapy is better for intermediate lesions than stenting them.

*Increase of Mg levels is associated with reduced calcification in the tunica media
**The systemically available magnesium from Mg intake per day tested in this study was 15 mg, while the magnesium released locally by the BIOTRONIK Mg Scaffold during
one year is around 10 mg.

CONFIDENTIAL – Internal Use Only
• Mg suppresses the transformation of
vascular smooth muscle cells into
calcifying (osteogenic) cells1-3
• Mg intake correlate with reduced
calcification of the coronary arteries4*

Immediately after implantation,
struts are well apposed to the

While the Magnesium resorption
process continues, endothelialization
progresses.
At 12 months after implantation,
the Magnesium resorption is
almost completed.

Conclusions
• Clinical outcome showed low TLF (3.4%) and TLR (1.7%), comparable to other absorbable scaffolds and permanent drug-eluting stents.
• There was no definite-or-probable scaffold thrombosis until 12-month FUP.
• Vasomotion is preserved
• Virtual Histology IVUS showed a decrease in dense calcium content over time, a surrogate endpoint for scaffold degradation.
