摘要
Coronary artery disease(CAD)is the leading cause of death worldwide.Implantation of traditional cylindrical stents into the stenotic coronary arteries is widely used in patients with CAD.However,because most coronary arteries taper in diameter by at least 0.5 mm over a length of 20 mm[1],natural size mismatch is common between a cylindrical stent and a tapered coronary artery.This stent-vessel mismatch may directly cause either increased stress on both stent and vessel or incomplete stent apposition,followed by vessel injury,in-stent restenosis,or stent thrombosis[2,3].
