Coronary arteries stenting and balloning 
Coronary arteries are the sole blood supply to the heart muscle, they are 2 main trunks from which multiple main branches comes out to supply the heart with the needed amount of blood to function well. In cases of coronary atherosclerosis that happen due to diabetes, dyslipedemia, smoking and hypertension,  Coronaries got thrombosed and occluded and need revascularization procedure which is divided in to endovacular stenting and balloning or open heart revascularization surgical procedures. In case of coronary stenting the stent is placed in the coronary artery to keep it patent and functioning, in some cases the stent develop thrombosis and occlusion after that your treating cardiologist will decide to remove the stent and replace it with a new functioning stent. So the stent cannot be removed permenantly if the surgical procedure has not been decided. But in cases where the open heart revascularization was decided, the stent will be removed surgically and a new vessle will be placed to deliver blood to the heart muscle.
