A shunt is a passage between blood vessels which diverts blood.
A stent is used to prop open an artery.
Stent Shunt
An AV shunt is surgically implanted. An internal fistula is an abnormality that develops in tissues/between areas of anatomy.
A shunt is typically used to redirect fluid flow in the body, such as in cases of hydrocephalus or to relieve pressure in areas like the brain or heart, whereas a stent is used to keep a passage open, like in blood vessels. Shunts are often employed when there is a need to bypass an obstruction or to manage excess fluid, while stents are primarily for maintaining vessel patency. The choice between a shunt and a stent depends on the specific medical condition being treated and the desired outcome.

a shunt coil needs external supply & tripping coil gets supply from itself.
In general, placing a stent is less invasive and so carries less immediate risk from the procedure. However, shunts often give better long term results depending on the exact situation.
fistulas are natural occurring and shunts are man made devices
Basic voltage regulators are classified as either SERIES or SHUNT, depending on the location or position of the regulating element(s) in relation to the circuit load resistance.
The difference between a separately excited DC generator and a Shunt DC generator is that for a separately excited Dc generator , the excitation field winding is supplied by an external source different from that supplying the armature while for shunt generator, the excitation field windind is connected in series with the armature and supplied by a single source.
