Balloon expansion of a biodegradable stent inside a plastic tube.

Notes: (A) The electrospun nanofibers mounted on a spiral poly-L-lactide stent (3.5×20 mm). (B) During inflation of the balloon, the stents with the nanofibers expanded inside a plastic tube. The balloon was removed, leaving the stent and the nanofibers in situ (scale bar: 10 mm).
