Bypass is major surgery (with such tools as a circular saw, rib spreader) requiring general anesthesia, whereas a stent (mm in size) is inserted via a catheter and inflated to open a clogged (or near clogged) artery and the patient remains awake (typically a strong antihistamine (e.g., Benadryl) is given for its sedative side-effect) .
