摘要：Heavily calcified coronary lesions continue to represent a challenge for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI),as they are difficult to dilate,and it is difficult to deliver and implant drug-eluting stents (DES) properly.Poor stent deployment is associated with high rates of periprocedural complications and suboptimal long-term clinical outcomes.[1]Thanks to the introduction of several adjunctive PCI tools,like cutting and scoring balloons,and to the novel intravascular lithotripsy technology,the treatment of such lesions has become increasingly feasible,predictable and safe.[2]However,360° concentric superficial calcification with inability to cross the calcified lesion with a balloon mandates the use of rotational or orbital atherectomy,[2] which can be safely performed via the transfemoral or transradial approach.[3,4] In this technical note,we report our initial experience of the "one-man" bailout high-speed rotational atherectomy (HSRA) technique,whereby the operator both advances the HSRA device and keeps the distal wire in place.
