Abstract

Percutaneous coronary intervention has become a standard-of-care procedure in patients with acute and chronic coronary syndromes, in which coronary stent technology is commonly used. In this mini-review article, we summarize the characteristics of contemporary coronary drug-eluting and coated stents.
