A member asked:
Which stent is best for heart vein our doctor said the heart vein is blocked so which stent u will recommend and any advice plz ..
A doctor has provided 1 answer
For the heart doc: This question is best answered by the cardiologist that will be doing the procedure. There are a number of stent types; the type that is best for you will depend on the specific situation at hand, including which vessel is blocked, how much is blocked, etc. You should address your concerns with your cardiologist and ask which he thinks is best and why.
