Why does stent failure or restenosis happen?
short by / on Thursday, 5 June, 2025
Restenosis, often triggered by neointimal hyperplasia or thrombosis, can significantly reduce stent efficacy. Identifying recurrent ischemic symptoms early allows for diagnostic confirmation and timely revascularisation, improving clinical outcomes. Simple tests like angiograms or stress tests can confirm it early—don’t wait for things to escalate.
