Acute- and Long-term Outcomes of Rotational Atherectomy followed by Cutting Balloon versus Plain Balloon before Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation for Calcified Coronary Lesions

摘要

Background:Coronary calcification is a major determinant of stent underexpansion and subsequent adverse events. This study aimed to evaluate the acute- and long-term outcomes of rotational atherectomy (RA) followed by cutting balloon (CB) versus plain balloon before drug-eluting stent implantation for calcified coronary lesions.
