Title:
BIODEGRADABLE PERIPHERAL SCAFFOLD AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/138417
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A biodegradable peripheral scaffold and a method of manufacturing thereof is disclosed. The process includes extruding biodegradable polymer granules to form an extruded tube, deforming the extruded tube to form a deformed tube with high fracture toughness and enhanced strength. The deformed tube is laser cut to yield a scaffold followed by annealing the scaffold in vacuum conditions. The annealed scaffold is coated with a biodegradable polymer in order to impart flexibility to the scaffold.
