I just had 2 stents put in my LAD. At age 80, I am hoping once is enough. I have seen on youTube where the newer stents have a coating that discourages them from stopping up again. I watched a video where the doctor said if the blockage isn't too bad they can put another stent inside the old one. I guess the point is for us patients to quit doing what caused the blockage to start with.

Iam an interventional cardiologist . Sorry to highlight an important point . The operators must wear mask and caps . Otherwise what is the point point in weaing all those serile gowns and precautions.. The face of the operator can be shown at the beginning and end if required. Patients are at risk of infection.

I had this done 2 stents. Thank You Dr. Parveen Upal in New Jersey! I am 70 and doing fine thank to you my IDOL!

When my Dad was getting his stent inserted, the surgeon punctured through the artery which caused bleeding into the pericardium which resulted in an emergency procedure which in turn caused multiple severe follow-on complications. Lesson to be learned: no medical procedure is without risks.

I had the same "restenosis"... my stent was almost clogged. and got 2 additional stents in.. (on the same machine as on the video)...

How can an interventionist made such a mistake for risky procedure such as this? Restonosis

does anyone know of a doctor that can take out 2 stents placed in the LAD. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

It depends on plaque composition and risk of dissection. Heavily calcified lesions are often rotablated or shock-wave'd to break up calcification for stent advancement. You want to avoid this if possible because it increases the risk of the artery dissecting and can turn a very stable plaque into an unstable one (leading to a thrombosis and subsequent AMI).

Is it rare to use this laser technology ? I had restonosis last month (Jan 2021) and they just re-expanded my old stent and added two more ?

With some accreditation agencies, because Cardiac Cathaterization Labs usually perform percutaneous procedures, which are considered non-invasive or minimally invasive procedures; Therefore, hair covers and masks are not required. Personally, I'm at least wearing a mask. This has been my experience in working in Cath Lab. I may be wrong.

@@lowpunchmiller3881 Exactly, personally I find it a bit ridiculous though. The procedure may be percutaneous, but the caths and guide wires are all being exposed to respiratory droplets, it's not at all difficult to put on a mask and cap and certainly every cath lab I've worked in (Australia) now requires this for accreditation.
