A member asked:

Hi doctors, can you tell me what is late stent thrombosis ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See answer below: It is when a stent that has been placed 30 days to 1 year ago to keep vessels open has a clot in it, and is blocked. It needs treatment to get the stent unblocked so the vessel with the stent can be patent and feed necessary parts of the body.
