Patent ID: 7897224

Claim:
A stent comprising a crystallized bioabsorbable polymer composition wherein the stent comprises at least about 70% (w/w) of a base polymer comprising a poly (L-lactide) moiety, and/or a poly (D-lactide) moiety, and/or poly L-lactide-co-PEG moiety, and/or poly D-lactide-co-PEG moiety, linked with a modifying copolymer thereof, comprising poly (L-lactide-co-Tri-methylene-carbonate) or poly (D-lactide-co-tri-methylene-carbonate) or poly (L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) or poly (D-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) in the form of block copolymers or blocky random copolymers.
