Abstract

A bioabsorbable implantable endoprosthesis (50) having elongate elements (20,30,40) including hollow (22), cavity (32) or porous (42) portions adapted toaccumulate by-product from the degradation of the bioabsorbable material and shorten the diffusion distance (d1) for water absorption and thereby relatively increase the degradation of the structure.
