Too many stents in LAD cannot bypass

I would suggest you ask this question in the Heart Disease Community - or if you want an answer from a physician, try the Heart Disease Expert Forum.

I would think the answer to your question is "no" - but I don't have very much knowledge about this. This is a heart rhythm community.
