My father had a pacemaker installed recently( one week back). he also have two of the blocks now. Now there are two options for removing the blocks. one is stent and other is bypass surgery. we would like to know which option is good. i appreciate your help in getting the right option.
hello, Thanks for using HCM.I have gone through your query. if the type of blocks are suitable for stenting and affordability is not major issue you should opt for stenting. My best wishes Dr.Rajesh Teli,MD.
