Clinical trials show that larger immediate postdeployment stent diameters provide greater ultimate luminal size, whereas animal data show that arterial injury and stent design determine late neointimal thickening. At deployment, a stent stretches a vessel, imposing a cross-sectional polygonal luminal shape that depends on the stent design, with each strut serving as a vertex. We asked whether this design-dependent postdeployment luminal geometry affects late neointimal thickening independently of the extent of strut-induced injury.
