Abstract
People from all around the world are annually affected by the arterial coronary disease. Nowadays, the clinical procedure to restore normal blood flow and avoid the other critical consequences of vessel narrowing are the coronary interventions, including angioplasty and stent placement, that represent the most performed invasive medical procedures in cardiology. The clinical use of coronary stents has a long history, as they have been used since the 1980s and have become a milestone in the treatment of coronary vascular diseases. Coronary stents save many lives every day, however, these same stents have caused multiple complications to patients, requiring innovation and new developments in the area. Thus, the fully bioresorbable vascular stents, also called vascular scaffolds, are intended to completely upgrade cardiovascular medicine due to their tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approach. However, with the upcoming scaffolds also came several doubts on whether their benefits would overcome the risks discovered so far. This chapter summarizes the history of the fully bioresorbable stents and discusses the future of these devices based on the results of clinical trials available and the main outcomes.
