Intravascular Lithotripsy Is Associated With Superior Clinical Outcomes Compared to Atherectomy: A Large‐Scale, Propensity‐Matched Analysis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
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.
