Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 , i A coupld of off the wall ideas as to why cardiac stents aren't used as pancreas stents: t might be because bile is more caustic or some other effect that bile has on the stent. I don't know. It might also have to do with the amount of pressure put on the stents. I'm sure blood is pumped at a different pressure than bile is. It would be interesting to find out the true answer. Let me know if you find out. Kimber -- Kimber Vallejo, CA hominid2@...
