Hello! In order to accurately answer the question of whether two branches of coronary artery stenosis have operated on and one branch can take medication, the doctor must also see how the patient's coronary artery damage is, whether it is necessary to take a scan. coronary artery by DSA or not? From there, it can be concluded whether to continue medical treatment or to continue to intervene to bridge the remaining branch.
