A member asked:
How many of the most stent in the coronary blood vessels which used? what risk if the use of stent exceed the limit ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No absolute limit: There is no real limit to the number of stents that could be implanted. If a single blockage keeps coming back, then stenting and restenting that same segment of artery may not be the best approach,
