Background: Balloon dilatation or debulking seems to be essential to allow successful stent
implantation in calcified coronary lesions. Compared with standard balloon predilatation …

Objectives: To study the effectiveness of drug‐eluting stents following rotablation of severely
calcified lesions. Background: Drug‐eluting stents are increasingly showing promising …

Objectives: This study sought to determine the effect of rotational atherectomy (RA) on drug-
eluting stent (DES) effectiveness. Background: DES are frequently used in complex lesions …

Aims: Little information is available on the outcome after rotational atherectomy (RA)
followed by drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in calcified coronary lesions. The aim of …

The aim of this study was to determine the preferred treatment modality for calcified lesions
in large (≥ 3 mm) coronary arteries, resulting in the largest lumen dimensions and the most …

Objectives To assess long‐term outcome after rotational atherectomy (RA) is followed by
drug‐eluting stent (DES) implantation in complex calcified coronary lesions. Background RA …

OBJECTIVES: This study sought to determine the success and complication rates of high
speed rotational coronary atherectomy in calcified and noncalcified lesions …

Background In the randomized ROTAXUS trial, routine lesion preparation of complex
calcified coronary lesions using rotational atherectomy (RA) prior to paclitaxel‐eluting stent …

Background. Rotational atherectomy followed by drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for
complex, severely calcified lesions is a rational combination that has not been sufficiently …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the binary re‐stenosis rates, procedural
success, and in hospital outcomes following treatment of fibro‐calcified coronary lesion with …
