Abstract

The therapeutic e[cacy of bare-metal stents is signiVcantly limited due to frequent restenosis. Here we review the approaches for surface modiVcation to prevent restenosis, presented the advantages and disadvantages of each method. In the Vrst part of the review, we consider antithrombotic and antiproliferative stents coating. The review presents the most signiVcant and interesting research aimed forming endothelial layer on the stents surface in vitro.
