A Multicenter Retrospective Analysis of the Utility of Intravascular Lithotripsy in Underexpanded Stents
Our multicenter retrospective analysis demonstrates that IVL is a safe and effective tool in the treatment of underexpanded stents with 12-month MACE rates comparable to those of de novo coronary lesions and a high rate of procedural success. Larger, randomized studies are required to elucidate the optimal approach for treating underexpanded stents.
