Coronary atherectomy via guide extension catheter for bending calcified lesions
25 Mar 2021
It is challenging to treat bending calcified coronary lesions with CA. Using a guide extension catheter-supported back-up force to advance a bulky atherectomy device and a guidewire bias to the calcified lesion enabled imaging observation and sufficient dilation using a scoring balloon, which led to stent-less...
