Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold vs. everolimus‐eluting metallic stent in small vessel disease: A propensity matched analysis of COMPARE II, RAI, and MAASSTAD‐ABSORB studies

Abstract

In this propensity-matched analysis pooling SVD patients of three large prospective studies, incidence of composite device-related events was comparable between BVS and EES up to 2 years follow-up. However, higher rates of stent thrombosis were found in the BVS group.
