Yes, I had one done. My understanding was...they ‘drilled’ the old blocked stent enough to place the new uninflated one inside, then widened the new stent, in the usual way, so it fitted exactly.Hope that makes sense? Never gave any more trouble (they’ve been checked, since), and thats about 9 years ago.
