Comparison of in vivo acute stent recoil between the bioabsorbable everolimus‐eluting coronary stent and the everolimus‐eluting cobalt chromium coronary stent: Insights from the ABSORB and SPIRIT trials

Abstract

In vivo acute stent recoil of the BVS is slightly larger but insignificantly different from that of the EES, implying that the BVS may have good radial strength similar to the metallic stent.
