Need info ASAP: May have been on Yahoo Health news end of Oct.. See details.?

Did anyone see on Yahoo news or in their paper or on TV about the artificial material used for heart shunts breaking off into the arteries and causing further damage? I looked at various health Web sites and couldn't find anything. Have a close friend (he's 55) who just suffered a heart attack this past weekend. His cardiologists want to perform this procedure on him. Would like reassurance it's safe and not just being tested. Thanks for all the help.
