The method for endovascular magnetic targeting drug delivery in a vascular wall and adjoining tissues, wherein an endovascular mesh stent with paramagnetic properties is preliminary implanted in the area of interest by a catheter, a polymeric magneto-responsive carrying agent in the form of particles, containing a drug, is injected, and a magnetic field is applied, characterized in that, at least, one temporary catheter is introduced in the right atrium, and/or in ventricles of heart, and/or in a coronary sinus and/or in a coronary vein, which distal end takes a position close to the implanted mesh stent, thereupon, a gradient permanent magnetic field is generated and adjusted by means of a permanent magnet and/or a solenoid with the core, connected to an electric power source, which magnet or solenoid are located at the distal end of each temporary catheter, where the maximal gradient of magnetic field is located in the implanted endovascular stent, principally on the stent mesh. |
