The present invention relates to stents made of a magnesium alloy degradable under physiological conditions having an inorganic coating comprising magnesium fluoride and having an organic coating. The stents according the invention can additionally be coated with at least one antiinflammatory, antiproliferative, antiangiogenic, antirestenotic, and/or antithrombogenic active agent.

Stent made of a bio-degradable magnesium alloy with a magnesium fluoride coating and an organic coating

The present invention is directed to a magnesium alloy containing 5.0% by wt.-25.5% by wt. dysprosium, 0.01% by wt.-5.0% by wt. neodymium and/or europium, 0.1% by wt. 3.0% by wt. zinc, 0.1% by wt.-2.0% by wt. Zirconium, and balance to 100.0% by wt. magnesium, being degradable under physiological conditions and which is particularly suitable for the production of absorbable stents and to stents made thereof.

Magnesium alloy and resorbable stents containing the same

The present invention is directed to stents made of a magnesium alloy degradable under physiological conditions and an outer polymeric coating. Herein, the stents according to the invention can be additionally coated with at least one anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, antiangiogenic, antirestenotic and/or antithrombogenic active agent.
