Hi,
Atherosclerosis is a disease, which affects arteries (vessels). In your mother case it affects heart arteries and cause narrowing abd blockage in arteries. A stent was put in one of her arteries, but heart has more than one artery, and as the disease evolves, other arteries may be affected and there may be need for intervention in other arteries. We prescribe medications to prevent the blockage of remaining arteries, but still there is no 100% guarantee, that there will be no further blockages, it is individual.
Hope this was helpful
Take care
