摘要:
The present invention provides a method for fabricating an implant stent with therapeutic effects. The method of the present invention includes designing and delineating a pattern of the implant stent, drilling a thin metal sheet to form positioning holes, cutting a desired pattern on the thin metal sheet according to the designed pattern, drilling a hole on a line rib of the stent to form a braided structure by a micro discharge processor according to the desired pattern. Then, the stent is cleaned and polished by the electropolish to trim the edge and the rough surface of the stent. Then, the biodegradable material, PLLA, PGA, fibrinogen, the polyurethane-polyethylene oxide mixed with the heparin or the combination thereof, is used for forming the mixed material with the high molecular weight, and is solved in a solvent, wherein another grinded therapeutic drug with the micro or the nano size is added. The drug can be As2O5, an anti-caner drug, or an anti-inflammation drug. The solution with the bioadsordable material having a therapeutic drug is atomized and sprayed on the outer and inner surfaces of the stent. Since a row of holes are arranged on the line rib of the stent, each hole is immersed into the solution due to the capillary phenomenon. When the solution is completely evaporated, the biodegradable and absordable material and the drug are coagulated to form a solid and to strongly coat on the surface of the stent. When the stent is implanted into a human body, the solid layer is slowly degraded and released on the injured site, so that the vessel is prevented from restenosis, and the therapeutic effect is achieved. The stent can be fabricated by the precision machine technology in Taiwan, so that the implant stent with low cost and therapeutic effects is obtained.
