Abstract
Heavy calcification remains one of the greatest challenges in the treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD), especially in subjects with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In the present case series study of high-risk patients with ACS, including both STEMI and NSTEMI, we performed a rota-lithotripsy—a combination of rotational atherectomy with subsequent intravascular lithotripsy—as a novel bail-out strategy to facilitate stent delivery in a tortuous calcified coronary artery.
