Since the introduction of Interventional Cardiology in 1976, there has been rapid expansion both in its clinical application and the tools of the trade. This growth was accelerated with the introduction of the intra-coronary stent in 1987. The demonstration that stents may reduce the incidence of restenosis after percutaneous coronary revascularization has further stimulated the search for the perfect endovascular prosthesis. By creating a hybrid stent, incorporating natural coatings and local drug delivery in the design, it is hoped that the complications associated with stent thrombosis and restenosis can be eradicated.

自 1976 年介入心脏病学问世以来，其临床应用和相关工具都得到了迅速发展。1987 年冠状动脉内支架的引入加速了这一发展。支架可降低经皮冠状动脉血运重建后再狭窄发生率的这一发现进一步激发了人们对理想血管内假体的探索。通过设计一种混合支架，将天然涂层和局部药物输送相结合，有望消除支架血栓形成和再狭窄相关的并发症。（趋势心血管医学 1997；7:245-249）。 © 1997，爱思唯尔科学公司。
