The Role of Atherectomy in Lesion Preparation for Peripheral Artery Disease: Evolution of Technologies, Available Devices, and Contemporary Evidence [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Atherectomy has become an established tool for lesion preparation in the endovascular treatment of peripheral artery disease (PAD), particularly for complex and heavily calcified lesions.

Sequential dual rotational atherectomy for salvage of a 20-year axillobifemoral PTFE graft [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Salvaging chronically occluded extra-anatomical bypass grafts remains challenging given prohibitive surgical risk. We describe sequential dual rotational atherectomy for a completely occluded 20-year axillobifemoral PTFE graft in a 73-year-old high-risk ...

Pathogen burden, inflammation, proliferation and apoptosis in human in-stent restenosis - Tissue characteristics compared to primary atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Pathogenic events leading to in-stent restenosis (ISR) are still incompletely understood. Among others, inflammation, immune reactions, deregulated cell death and growth have been suggested. Therefore, atherectomy probes from 21 patients with symptomatic

Rotational Atherectomy: A Contemporary Appraisal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Rotational atherectomy (RA) is an atheroablative technology that enables percutaneous coronary intervention for complex, calcified coronary lesions. RA works on the principle of ‘differential cutting’ and preferentially ablates hard, inelastic, calcified

Molecular atherectomy for restenosis [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1993
Receptors for basic (b) and acidic (a) fibroblast growth factor (FGF) are upregulated in activated smooth muscle cells. These cells, which proliferate in response to bFGF, can thus be killed by a conjugate of bFGF and the ribosome-inactivating enzyme, saporin (which, by itself, does not enter the cells).
