The Diagonal Branch to the Accompanying Vein Fistula After Rotational Atherectomy
10/29/2019
We report a case of RA-induced fistula between the diagonal branch and the accompanying vein. Thus far, the patient has had no relevant symptoms; thus, no intervention has been undertaken. We will closely monitor the patient to determine...

Rota Rescue: Avoiding Regret
04/30/2017
The Rotablator preferentially ablates hard, inelastic material, such as calcified plaque, that is less able to stretch away from the advancing burr than is healthy arterial wall (differential cutting).

Rotational Atherectomy of Three Overlapping Stent Layers
08/31/2016
A patient was found to have in-stent restenosis within three layers of underexpanded stents implanted in 2004, 2011, and 2014. Rotational atherectomy safely yielded stent strut ablation (reduced to one layer), lesion expansion, and very good...

Alternative Rota-Flush Solution for Patients With Severe Coronary Artery Calcification who Undergo Rotational Atherectomy
06/15/2016
We assessed the feasibility and safety of a rota-flush solution with 10,000 U of unfractionated heparin in 1 L of normal saline in rotational atherectomy patients as an alternative to the routinely used solution, which includes the RotaGlide...

Novel Technique of Advancing the Rotational Atherectomy Device: "Single-Operator" Technique
04/30/2016
The “single-operator” technique allows successful RA without a skilled assistant to maintain wire position during advancement of the burr; the absence of an assistant should therefore not eliminate the performance of RA.

An Innovative Retrieval Technique for an Entrapped Rotational Atherectomy Device: A Case Discussion From the 2015 SCAI Fellows Course
03/03/2016
An entrapped rotational atherectomy burr is uncommon, but one of the nightmare complications in the cardiac cath lab, warranting the need for familiarity with various retrieval techniques and skilled application.
