First-in-man evaluation of the novel balloon delivery system STENTYS Xposition S for the self-apposing coronary artery stent: impact on longitudinal geographic miss during stenting

Abstract

This first-in-man study demonstrated that the use of the novel STENTYS Xposition S balloon delivery system is feasible with a high technical success rate without longitudinal geographical miss. Stent strut malapposition rate directly after STENTYS placement was low and improved further after post-dilatation.
