Background: Calcified coronary lesions represent technical challenges during percutaneous
coronary intervention and are associated with a high frequency of restenosis and target …

Background ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has traditionally been a relative
contraindication for the utilization of rotational atherectomy (RA). However, in severely …

Rotational atherectomy (RA) is a proven technique to modify a heavily calcified coronary
lesion if balloon angioplasty failed. RA is frequently avoided in ST-elevation myocardial …

Background Although the use of rotational atherectomy (RA) is off-label in the setting of ST-
elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), it can be the only option in severely calcified culprit …

Rotational atherectomy (RA) is widely used in the percutaneous treatment of heavily
calcified coronary artery lesions in patients with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) …

Background Rotational atherectomy (RA) is an indispensable tool used for calcified lesion
preparation in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, use of RA in the setting …

Introduction Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of heavily calcified lesions is a
challenge for the interventional cardiologist and is associated with a high rate of restenosis …

Objectives The aim of this study was to compare outcomes of bailout and planned rotational
atherectomy (RA) in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions. Background Current …

Rotational atherectomy to an angulated calcified lesion is always challenging. The risk of
catastrophic complications such as a burr becoming stuck or vessel perforation is greater …

Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the influences of accumulated experience
on rotational atherectomy (RA) operation regarding to in‐hospital outcomes in the drug …
