New Delhi [India], March 17 (ANI/SRV): A, 68 years old, a follow-up patient for 10 years, recently started to have frequent episodes of angina. A known diabetic and hypertensive for 15 years, he had a heart attack, and Dr Sameer Kubba, Director, Clinical & Interventional Cardiology, Max Super Specialty Hospital, Vaishali performed stenting in two of his coronary arteries. The patient was doing well and had been very diligent in following a heart-healthy lifestyle in addition to taking his cardiac medications religiously. Despite controlling all modifiable risk factors, the patient had progression of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, which was disheartening. We implanted another stent and optimised it with medications.
