FRAP-CROSS technique: Fracking and Rendezvous-PIERCE for intracalcium crossing in femoropopliteal diffuse calcified occlusions
FRAP-CROSS provides a practical approach to achieve all-intracalcium guidewire crossing and stentless revascularization in complex FPDCOs. Further studies should assess its safety and long-term outcomes.
