Abstract
Rotational atherectomy with the use of the JetStream XC device is indicated for treatment of infrainguinal arterial obstructive disease. The number of blades-up (BU) runs needed for optimal tissue debulking in femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (ISR) is unknown. In the present series, 6 patients (15 lesions) were treated for femoropopliteal ISR with the JetStream XC device. Minimal luminal diameter or percent stenosis improved significantly from baseline after 2 BU runs, but no further gain was seen between 2 and 4 BU runs (P > .05). However, adjunctive balloon angioplasty reduced percent stenosis significantly following BU runs. In conclusion, the JetStream XC device achieved optimal acute angiographic results in treating femoropopliteal ISR following 2 BU runs and adjunctive balloon angioplasty.
