Abstract
The high radial force and durability of cobalt-chromium alloy enable the construction of low-profile stents with thin struts, which improves their elasticity and may play a key role in reducing the incidence of neointimal hyperplasia as well as allow faster endothelialization. The aim of this study was to compare cobalt-chromium (CoCr) and stainless steel (SS) coronary stents in a pig model of neointimal hyperplasia.
