Orbital-Tripsy: Novel Combination of Orbital-Atherectomy and Intravascular-Lithotripsy, in Calcified Coronaries After Failed Intravascular-Lithotripsy

Calcified coronary lesions are notorious for posing technical difficulty during angioplasty. Fortunately, more devices are available to tackle coronary calcifications. However, there remain difficult cases whereby a single modality is insufficient. Here we report the feasibility and success of a cas...

Summary:Calcified coronary lesions are notorious for posing technical difficulty during angioplasty. Fortunately, more devices are available to tackle coronary calcifications. However, there remain difficult cases whereby a single modality is insufficient. Here we report the feasibility and success of a case, using Novo combination of Shockwave Lithotripsy after Orbital Atherectomy. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.) [Display omitted]
