A) How long is the blockage and is it hard or soft.
B) Is the blockage on a curved section of the artery making it more risky for Stents.
C) Is the area around the main blockage diseased distally. In otherwords, is the disease
running down a large distance of the artery.
D) Is there a clean area to graft onto using a bypass graft.
These are just a few of the things that a cardiologist will have to consider.
