ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a prosthetic device comprising a support member comprising a stent, a conduit or a scaffold; and a layer of elastin or elastin-based material located on said support member. Preferably, the layer of said elastin or elastin-based biomaterial completely surrounds said support member. The support member can be formed of a metal or a synthetic material such as a polymeric material.
