It does not. It needs to be replaced every 3 months.

Not sure about that. I've had my Stent in over a year and just talked to a specialist and was told technically they have no expiration. Of course the initial plastic ones need to be replaced with metal within 3 months. Anyone out there have a metal stent that's been in for year(s) without being replaced?
