Abstract

Heavily calcified coronary lesions remain a technical challenge and an important cause of stent under-expansion and then failure. We hereby present a successful case of combined rotational atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy for the treatment of an un-dilatable, heavily calcified coronary stenosis.
