BVS is a special type of stent used to treat blocked coronary arteries. Unlike traditional metal stents, BVS is made from materials that naturally dissolve over time—leaving the artery free of a permanent implant.
It works by:
Opening the artery and restoring blood flow
Supporting the artery during healing
Gradually resorbing over 1–3 years, allowing the vessel to regain natural movemen
BVS may reduce long-term risks linked to permanent stents and is ideal for certain patients needing temporary support.
Consult your cardiologist to know if BVS is right for you.
