The Resorbable Magnesium Scaffold Magmaris in Acute Coronary Syndrome: An Appraisal of Evidence and User Group Guidance.

Bioresorbable scaffolds provide transient vessel support without the long-term limitations of permanent metallic drug-eluting stents. The sirolimus-eluting resorbable magnesium scaffold Magmaris is the only CE-marked metallic bioresorbable scaffold and provides short-term lumen support before being completely bioresorbed. To date, clinical trial results have demonstrated low adverse event rates in patients with simple coronary lesions. Seven European centers with large experience in Magmaris implantation, combined efforts in an informal collaboration to evaluate and appraise clinical data currently available regarding the performance of Magmaris in patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes, and to supply user-advice on patient selection and optimal implantation practice.
