The invention provides bioabsorbable elastomeric arterial support devices fabricated using elastomeric polymer networks and semi-interpenetrating networks in which a linear polymer is crosslinked by ester or alpha-amino-acid containing cross-linkers that polymerize upon exposure to active species. The invention devices are designed for implant into curved segments of artery and can be expanded during arterial implant and cross-linked in vivo in the expanded state to restore a clogged artery to extended function. The invention devices are useful for in vivo implant in diseased arteries and for delivery of a variety of therapeutic molecules in a time release fashion to surrounding tissues to reduce or eliminate arterial response to implant of the device.
