A sterile non-bioabsorbable metal tubular mesh structure covered with a non-bioabsorbable polymer and a drug coating that is designed to be implanted, via a delivery catheter, into a coronary artery (or saphenous vein graft) to maintain its patency typically in a patient with symptomatic atherosclerotic heart disease. The drug coating is slowly released and intended to inhibit restenosis by reducing vessel smooth muscle cell proliferation. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be included.
