Multivessel disease PCI guided by physiology and IVUS - LIVE case
Summary
A 78-year-old woman with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity, presented with angina CCS2 and preserved LV function. The coronary angiogram showed stenosis in the RCA (proximal and mid), CX, and calcified proximal and mid LAD involving D1 and D2.
The operators performed PCI on the RCA (1 stent) and PCI on the LAD with rotablation preparation and 2 stents in the mid and proximal LAD. The PCI was guided by physiology (iFR, FFR, QFR) and IVUS.
