Rotational atherectomy ensured safe PCI outcomes, with an overall in-hospital mortality rate of 0%.
Out of 125 patients, only 1 experienced a procedure abandonment, with 69.6% using a single burr effectively.
Retrospective analysis utilized NICOR data from 2018 to 2022 across a high-volume intervention center.
Results suggest RA can effectively prepare calcified coronary lesions, indicating a safe strategy for PCI.

Discussion

Retrospective analysis shows similar mortality rates between RA and standard PCI in patients with complex calcified lesions.

Myint et al. (2025) studied this question.
