Are Stents Advisable Over Bypass Surgery When Diagnosed With Blockage?
I am having a consultation tomorrow regarding either a quadruple bypass or stents. Obviously I would prefer stents. Is there a condition that may favor bypass over stents. They tell me my heart is strong also I have not had a heart attack. It is just the clogs

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it all depends upon the cardiac lesion and the other parameters if you are not qualified for the stent then it would be better to go for bypass, without the complete case study nothing can be said, because treatment varies accordingly, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
