Abstract
AbstractWe present a rare complication of Rotablator (Boston Scientific) atherectomy during percutaneous coronary intervention in a 67-year-old patient with a history of coronary artery disease and prior coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The fracture of the Rotablator drive shaft and retention of the Rotablator burr in the mid left anterior descending coronary artery posed significant challenges in patient management. This case demonstrates the successful extraction of the retained Rotablator burr using retrograde total occlusion recanalization and highlights the importance of understanding the potential complications and management strategies in complex interventional cardiology procedures.
