Treatment of in-stent restenosis in saphenous vein grafts often requires initial debulking, but transluminal extraction catheter (TEC) atherectomy is seldom used for this purpose, and most discussions omit this option. Our experience with 6 episodes of TEC used successfully for saphenous vein graft in-stent restenosis and review of 7 other reported cases suggests TEC may be safe and effective for debulking saphenous vein graft restenosis lesions.
