this is a irrelevant question..
just like when you have a wound over your hand, after some time healing occurs, and skin grows over it and covera the wound.
similarly after about 6 months , tissue grows over the covers the metallic part of the stent , and stent becomes embedded in tissue as integral part of body.
so do not overthink that it is dissolved or not dissolved. this question is irrelevant and not going to make any difference in your life
