Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) have been designed to overcome long‐term limitations of metallic drug‐eluting stents including permanent metallic "caging" that might trigger late coronary adverse events. Here, we report for the first time a case of 72‐year gentleman with previous coronary artery disease, treated by successful implantation of BVS (Absorb, Abbott Vascular) due to significant stenosis of internal pudenda artery and erectile dysfunction. After 2 years, BVS completely resorbed and there were no signs of pudendal artery restenosis on CT scan, whereas blood flow and sexual function improved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
