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 …

Introduction Rotational atherectomy (RA) during primary PCI (PPCI) for STEMI is relatively
contraindicated because of the perceived increased risk of no-reflow. However, RA PPCI …

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

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

Aims: The safety and efficacy of rotational atherectomy (RA) in patients presenting with non-
ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTE-ACS) remain to be defined. The aim of our study …

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 …

Rotational atherectomy (RA) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is
uncommon and its use in a thrombotic lesion is labelled a contraindication by its …

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

Objectives We aimed to investigate the feasibility, safety, and outcome of rotational
atherectomy (RA) in the setting of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Background Limited data …
