J Invasive Cardiol. 2021 May;33(5):E403-E404. doi: 10.25270/jic/20.00239.

Abstract

Coronary intravascular ultrasound assessment demonstrated severe stent underexpansion and circumferential superficial calcification. Following a failed attempt to predilate the in-stent restenosis, rotational atherectomy was performed.

Keywords: acute coronary syndrome; angioplasty; stents.
