An application of RASER technique in the treatment of chronic total occlusion accompanied with stent fracture in right coronary artery: a case report

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background The interventional treatment of chronic total occlusion (CTO) with stent fracture as well as severe calcification was extremely difficult and no effective technique has been reported.

Directional coronary atherectomy in unstable angina

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1994
To determine whether excision of complex, ulcerated plaque improves the risk of patients with unstable angina to the level of those with stable angina, the results of directional coronary atherectomy were compared in patients with these two syndromes.The procedural results of angioplasty in the setting of unstable angina are not as favorable as those ...

Excessive Ostial Stent Protrusion: Evaluation of Management Strategies and Clinical Outcomes of the Side Flap Technique

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 6, Page 1884-1898, May 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Backgrounds Accurate stent positioning in aorto‐ostial lesions remains challenging due to complex three‐dimensional anatomy, lack of optimal fluoroscopic projections, and high rates of geographic miss. Stent overhang impairs guide catheter re‐engagement and complicates future revascularization.

Clinical, angiographic and procedural correlates of quantitative coronary dimensions after directional coronary atherectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
To define the clinical, angiographic and procedural correlates of quantitative coronary dimensions after directional coronary atherectomy, 400 lesions in 378 patients were analyzed with use of qualitative morphologic and quantitative angiographic methods.

Endovascular rotational atherectomy for multivessel coronary calcification involving the main trunk of left coronary artery and the left anterior descending artery

open access: yesКардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика
The revascularization strategy for severe calcification is one of the most pressing problems of modern percutaneous coronary interventions, since it is observed more and more often and significantly complicates traditional endovascular treatment ...

Rotational Atherectomy Through Guide Extension Catheters: Indications, Technique, and Limitations

open access: yesJournal of Interventional Cardiology
Rotational atherectomy (RA) is an established technique for the treatment of heavily calcified coronary artery disease. Severe coronary calcification remains a frequent cause of procedural difficulty and device delivery failure during complex ...

Directional Coronary Atherectomy: The Vienna Experience

open access: yesJournal of Interventional Cardiology, 2001
Background: Several multicenter trials have shown excellent results for directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) in a selected patient cohort. To prove the applicability of this method in daily clinical routine and a nonselected patient cohort, we analyzed 46 consecutive cases performed at our catheterization lab. Methods: DCA was performed as a routine

High-speed rotational atherectomy before paclitaxel-eluting stent implantation in complex calcified coronary lesions: the randomized ROTAXUS (Rotational Atherectomy Prior to Taxus Stent Treatment for Complex Native Coronary Artery Disease) trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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, including calcified stenoses, which may challenge DES delivery,

Combined rotational atherectomy and aortic balloon valvuloplasty as a bridge to transcatheter aortic valve replacement

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2015
Patients with obstructive coronary artery disease and severe aortic stenosis have traditionally been managed with open heart surgery. In the era of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and high-risk coronary interventions many of those patients ...
