Zusammenfassung: | A stent has a plurality of members made from a first material. At least one of the plurality of members defines at least one hole. Each hole extends from a first surface of a member. Each hole has a first opening and a depth. Each hole has a barrier dividing the hole into a first reservoir and a second reservoir. The first reservoir extends from a first side of the barrier to the first opening of the hole and the second reservoir extends from a second side of the barrier to the second opening of the hole. The barrier is made from a material different from the first material. The barrier is semi-permeable and non-biodegradable and has a thickness which is less than the depth of the hole. |
