Failed angioplasty/ stent placement

Has anyone ever had a failed angioplasty when attempting to put in stents in an occluded vein?

If so- has there been a second attempt? Was it successful?

Thanks

I was supposed to have one, but they decided they couldn't, because a tendon crossed where it would go.I was prescribed Apixaban, & I'm on that for life.

Not what you're looking for?
