Research Abstract |
In this study, covered-stents were developed using electrospinning and the efficacy was examined in animal experinments for the endovascular reconstructive treatment of cerebral aneurysms. Prosthetic venous valves were also developed and evaluated in vitro in order to recover valve function.
