ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) with severe calcification remains a growing challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Atherectomy (ATH) has long been used for plaque modification, whereas intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as a promising alternative. Large‐scale comparative data on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Mechanistic Insights Into How Rewiring and Bifurcation Angle Affect DK‐Crush Stent Deployment
ABSTRACT Background Double kissing crush (DKC) is a preferred two‐stent technique for complex coronary bifurcation lesions. Proximal cell rewiring is routinely recommended to reduce technical failure, and DKC is considered effective across various bifurcation angles. However, it remains unclear whether this standard approach is optimal for all patients.

Atherectomy With Multimodal Embolic Protection for Severely Calcified Femoropopliteal Lesions
ABSTRACT Severe calcification in femoropopliteal lesions remains a clinical challenge to achieve both the technical and long‐term success in endovascular therapy. Although atherectomy is an effective treatment for calcified lesions, it is associated with the risk of distal embolization, even with the use of embolic protection devices (EPDs), and ...

ABSTRACT Background International robotic‐assisted PCI platforms such as CorPath 200 and CorPath GRX have demonstrated procedural safety and efficacy but are limited by the absence of real‐time tactile feedback and cumbersome device exchange. The ETcath200, the first domestically developed robotic PCI system in China, introduces guidewire force‐sensing

ABSTRACT Background Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a rare but devastating complication of acute myocardial infarction (MI), associated with high mortality despite advances in reperfusion therapy. However, contemporary data examining national trends in VSR outcomes and the evolving role of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in this population ...

ABSTRACT Background Accurate bioprosthesis implantation depth during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is crucial for optimal outcomes. Self‐expanding valves (SEVs) have evolved delivery catheter designs, from a double spine shaft in Evolut PRO+ (PRO + ) to single spine in Evolut FX (FX) and non‐spine in Navitor, to improve access ...

Difference Between Low‐Speed and High‐Speed Rotational Atherectomy Using Two Types of Guidewires
ABSTRACT Background Debulking devices are necessary to treat severe calcified lesions. Rotational atherectomy (RA) is widely employed to modify calcified plaques, but the influence of procedural variables, such as guidewire type and ablation speed, on ablation outcomes is not well established.
