Problems solved by technology

Foreign literature reports (Laaksovirta, S Laurila M.et al.Jurol, 167: 1527, 2002) use degradable lactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) as the original composite material to manufacture ureteral stents. The disadvantage of the stent tube is that the molecular weight is too low, the degradation time is too fast, the supporting effect can only last for about a week, and the composite material is a typical plastic body, which is relatively hard and has poor elasticity
[0005] Chinese patent application CN101212937A discloses a fiber-reinforced composite absorbable ureteral stent. The absorbable composite material in this patent application can be made of L-lactide / ε-caprolactone. When implanted, the ureteral stent and ureter High wall friction makes implantation difficult, and the composite material degrades too slowly during indwelling in the body, and debris formed during the degradation process may block the ureter

Abstract

The invention provides a kind of composite material for making a degradable ureteral stent, comprising: 60-98% by weight of L-lactide / Epsilon-caprolactone copolymer, and 2-40% by weight of polyvinylpolypyrrolidone. The L-lactide / Epsilon-caprolactone copolymer in the composite material is elastomeric material with good biocompatibility, and the polyvinylpolypyrrolidone can reduce a surface friction coefficient of the prepared degradable ureteral stent, and simultaneously raises the degradation speed of the degradable ureteral stent. The invention also discloses a degradable ureteral stent prepared by the composite material. The degradable ureteral stent has good biocompatibility, is easy to degrade, and can be used in an operation in urinary surgery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedical materials, and in particular relates to a composite material used for a degradable ureteral stent and an application thereof. Background technique [0002] Ureteral stent (double pigtail catheter, or D-J tube) is widely used in urological surgery, and is suitable for upper urinary tract surgery, lithotripsy, ureteral stricture expansion and other treatment processes. After it is implanted in the ureter, it can It plays an important role in draining urine and preventing ureteral stricture and adhesion blockage. At present, most of the ureteral stents in clinical use are made of silicone rubber or polyurethane polymer composite materials that cannot be degraded in the human body, and there are some insurmountable defects in clinical application, such as: they must be removed through invasive operations, that is, through cystoscopy. Although this type of cystoscopic operation is not considered a major oper...
