I honestly wish Bernie all the best health-wise but it would be nice to know if he had a heart attack. The descriptions of what happened aren't exactly clear.

Inserting a heart stent is definitely surgery. Even if “minimally invasive,” they still ran a catheter—likely from an artery in his groin—up through his body to his heart, ballooning a couple of stents into place. To claim that’s “not really surgery” is absurd.

i don't really care to argue the semantics. perhaps it is considered surgery. but from my experience its been referred to more so as a procedure.

Angioplasty, also known as balloon angioplasty and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, is a minimally invasive, endovascular procedure to widen narrowed or obstructed arteries or veins, typically to treat arterial atherosclerosis.
