Abstract

Objective: Describe the existing scientific literature regarding the feasibility and behavior of biodegradable stents (BDSs) in companion animals. Study Design: Systematic scoping review. Methods: A literature search was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) and followed the recommendations of the Cochrane Collaboration. The search was performed by using PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases, focusing on BDS usage in companion animals' urinary, respiratory, and digestive systems including choledochal duct. Results: In total, 233 articles were identified but only 21 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Ninety percent (n = 19) of the investigation was conducted in animal models aiming translational to humans, and only two studies involved clinical cases. Regarding application, 42.9% was focused on the urinary system, 19% assessed vascular stenting, 14.3% esophageal stenting, 19% choledochal duct stenting, and 4.8% tracheal stenting. Polylactic acid (PLA) was the most used biomaterial. Conclusion: This review summarized the use of BDS in companion animals, highlighting that most studies were conducted in animals without clinical disease, with most reporting a low incidence of self-limiting complications. Clinical Significance: This review underscores the potential impact of BDS on companion animals. Further research is necessary to explore BDS's full potential in small animal medicine.

可生物降解支架在伴侣动物：一个系统的范围审查。

目的：综述生物可降解支架（BDSs）在伴侣动物体内的可行性和行为。研究设计：系统的范围评估。方法：按照系统评价和荟萃分析扩展范围评价的首选报告项目（PRISMA-ScR）进行文献检索，并遵循Cochrane协作的建议。检索通过PubMed、Web of Science和Scopus数据库进行，重点关注BDS在伴侣动物的泌尿系统、呼吸系统和消化系统（包括胆总管）中的使用。结果：共纳入文献233篇，符合纳入标准的文献21篇。90% （n = 19）的研究是在动物模型中进行的，目的是转化为人类，只有两项研究涉及临床病例。在应用方面，42.9%集中在泌尿系统，19%评估血管支架，14.3%评估食管支架，19%评估胆总管支架，4.8%评估气管支架。聚乳酸（PLA）是最常用的生物材料。结论：本综述总结了BDS在伴侣动物中的应用，强调大多数研究是在没有临床疾病的动物中进行的，大多数报告的自限性并发症发生率很低。临床意义：本综述强调了BDS对伴侣动物的潜在影响。有必要进一步研究北斗系统在小动物医学领域的全部潜力。
