Target vessel–specific efficacy and short-term outcomes of rotational atherectomy in the treatment of chronic total occlusion
RA-assisted PCI is safe and feasible for heavily calcified CTO lesions. Observed outcomes showed some variation by target vessel, with RCA-CTO appearing to have relatively better short-term results. Intravascular imaging may be helpful for guidance, but in this cohort it was not associated with a statistically significant reduction in 6-month MACCEs.
