Experience with rotational atherectomy for calcified lesions of the right coronary artery

This article presents a clinical case of successful stenting of the right coronary artery using rotational atherectomy and intravascular ultrasound in a patient with severe calcified coronary artery disease and severe clinical symptoms of angina. An attempt at traditional percutaneous treatment at another clinic was unsuccessful, and the patient underwent endovascular rotational atherectomy followed by stenting of the affected segments of the coronary arteries. The implemented treatment tactics demonstrated its effectiveness and safety; the patient was discharged from the hospital in a stable condition, without symptoms of angina.
