Method of forming a drug eluting medical device is hollow, includes providing a composite member and a core member disposed between the outer member, the lumen of the outer member. The composite member is formed into a pattern. Aperture is formed through the outer member of the composite member. Without damaging the outer member, the composite member, leaving a hollow tubular members that are processed to remove the core member from the lumen of the outer member, already formed in a desired pattern. Lumen of the outer member is filled with a therapeutic agent.中空の薬剤溶出医療器具を形成する方法は、外側部材と、外側部材の管腔内に配置されたコア部材とを有する複合部材を提供することを含む。複合部材は、あるパターンに成形される。開口部が、複合部材の外側部材を貫通して形成される。複合部材は、外側部材を傷つけることなく、外側部材の管腔からコア部材を取り除くように処理され、所望のパターンに既に形成された中空の管状部材を残す。外側部材の管腔は、治療物質で満たされる。
