    摘要: Composite stent structures having multi-axial flexibility are described where the composite stent may have one or more layers of bioabsorbable polymers fabricated with the desired characteristics for implantation within a vessel. A number of individual ring structures separated from one another may be encased between a base polymeric layer and an overlaid polymeric layer such that the rings are coupled to one another via elastomeric segments which enable the composite stent to flex axially and rotationally along with the vessel. Each layer may have a characteristic that individually provides a certain aspect of mechanical behavior to the composite stent such that the aggregate layers form a composite polymeric stent structure capable of withstanding complex, multi-axial loading conditions imparted by an anatomical environment such as the SFA.
