Two Case Reports of Percutaneous Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Treatment of Severe Coronary Artery Calcification

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe coronary calcification is a common challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention, often resulting in suboptimal stent expansion. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) employs acoustic pressure waves to fracture calcified plaques and increase procedural success.

Unrecognized Rupture of Angioplasty Balloon: A Hidden Underlying Reason for the Delayed Occlusion of the Graft

Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
Rupture of angioplasty balloons is a recognized complication of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), occurring in approximately 5-10% of cases. If a rupture occurs, balloon fragments may embolize or cause thrombotic artery occlusion.

Do excimer laser angioplasty and rotational atherectomy facilitate balloon angioplasty? Implications for lesion-specific coronary intervention

, 1996
Objectives. This study sought to determine whether adjunctive balloon angioplasty after rotational atherectomy and excimer laser angioplasty provides better lumen enlargement (“facilitated angioplasty”) than angioplasty alone.Background.
