Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of coating a stent. A stent framework is provided. A polymeric mixture is injected through at least one inlet port in an extrusion die, and the polymeric mixture is extruded through a shaped orifice onto at least a portion of the stent framework to form a coated stent. A coated stent including an extruded coating disposed on at least a portion of the stent framework and a system for treating a vascular condition are also disclosed.
