Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is an implantable device with enhanced drug delivery area, wherein a pre- crimped stent assembly mounted on a balloon further comprises a homogenous coating of drug and associated polymeric matrix resulting in the formation of a circumferential cylindrical film formation, upon expansion of the balloon. The cylindrical film formation by the drug delivery medical devices enables maximum coverage area of the vascular lumen area, thereby preventing any untreated area within a lumen. |
