PURPOSE: To compare the degrees of stent-induced tissue hyperplasia of balloon-expandable, biodegradable stents (BEBSs) with those of self-expandable metallic stents (SEMSs) in a rat urethral model.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 20 rats were randomized into two groups. The BEBS group (n = 10) received a poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) biodegradable stent. The SEMS group (n = 10) received a nitinol bare stent. All rats were killed eight weeks after stent placement. The degree of stent-induced tissue hyperplasia was assessed by comparing the results of retrograde urethrography and histologic examination between the two groups.
RESULTS: Stent placement was technically successful in all rats. Two rats in the BEBS group were excluded due to procedure-related death. The mean luminal diameter of stented urethra on urethrograms was not significantly different at 4 and 8 weeks between the two groups. On histologic analysis, the percentage of granulation tissue area (p < 0.001) and the thickness of papillary projection (p < 0.001) were significantly higher in the BEBS group compared with the SEMS group. The inflammatory cell infiltration showed a clear tendency to significance (p = 0.050). There were no statistical differences in the number of epithelial layers and the thickness of submucosal fibrosis between the two groups.
CONCLUSION: Formation of stent-induced tissue hyperplasia was significantly evident in the rat urethra with similar degrees between the BEBS and the SEMS. The BEBS was associated with a thicker papillary projection and larger granulation tissue area resulting from higher inflammation compared with the SEMS.
