MEDICAMENT DISPENSING STENTS

A medicament dispensing medical implant is described which is fabricated from relatively non-inflammatory biogenic tissue or bio-polymers for implantation in or adjacent to a target tissue in the human body. The implant, which is preferably in the form of a stent (10), is non-thrombogenic, optically...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A medicament dispensing medical implant is described which is fabricated from relatively non-inflammatory biogenic tissue or bio-polymers for implantation in or adjacent to a target tissue in the human body. The implant, which is preferably in the form of a stent (10), is non-thrombogenic, optically translucent and relatively non-inflammatory, delivers relatively high doses of one or a combination of medicaments locally in a sustained fashion while delivering a relatively low dose of said medicaments systemically. L'invention se rapporte à un implant médical libérant un médicament, qui est fabriqué à partir de bio-polymères ou de tissus biogènes relativement non-inflammatoires, et qui est destiné à être implanté dans un tissu cible ou à proximité d'un tissu cible dans le corps humain. L'implant, qui se présente de préférence sous la forme d'un extenseur (10), est non-thrombogène, optiquement transparent et relativement non inflammatoire, et libère localement et de manière prolongée des doses relativement élevées d'un médicament ou d'une combinaison de médicaments tout en libérant de manière systémique une dose relativement faible desdits médicaments.
