Copyright 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.METHODS: Rabbits were fed with 1% cholesterol diet (n = 14) for 14 days, both iliac arteries were balloon denuded and radiated, and then rabbits were switched to 0.15% cholesterol diet. After 4 weeks, BF (n = 8), BMF (n = 8), and BMS (n = 8) were deployed in denuded and radiated areas.

Percent fibrin and fibrin score were higher with BMF stents compared to BMS (P <0.03 and <0.04) and giant cell number was significantly higher with both BMF and BF stents (P < 0.01 for both).

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of a polymer-free Biolimus A9-eluting stent [BioFreedom (BF)], compared with that of a biodegradable polymer-based Biolimus A9-eluting stent [BioMatrix Flex (BMF)] and a bare metal stent (BMS) in balloon denuded and radiated hypercholesterolemic rabbit iliac arteries.

RESULTS: The neointimal area in vessels implanted with BF stents was significantly less than that seen in vessels implanted with BMS (0.90 mm(2) +/- 0.14 vs. 1.29 mm(2) +/- 0.23, P <0.01).

Percent endothelialization was significantly higher and % uncovered struts were lower with BMS compared to either BMF or BF stents (P < 0.05 for both).
