Good god, he has 5 stents in his heart? Lady, what are you feeding him? You need to change his diet cause stents and wires wont cure diabetes.

at 2:10 and 2:35, is there any chance of aneurysm?

And what about the plaque that is in the artery whilst the stent is being placed? Would it be a danger in any circumstance?

I send my thanks in advance.
