Interventional Management

Procedural Step

6 FR TRANSRADIAL APPROAH6 FR XB GC. BMW WIRE.PRE-DILATED WITH TREK 1.2X6 F/B 2.0X12 F/B 2.5X15 NC AT 20-22 ATM. CHECK ANGIOGRAM REVEALED POOR LUMEN GAIN. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AT NEGOTIATING FLEX-TOME FAILED. 6 FR GUIDE-LINER USED AND AGAIN MULTIPLE NC BALLOON DILATATION DONE, STILL THE LESION DIDN'T YIELD. BMW EXCHANGED FOR ROTA FLOPPY WIRE. 1.25 BURR USED TO ROTA-BLATE THE ENTIRE LCX-OM SYSTEM MULTIPLE TIMES. ROTA WIRE EXCHANGED FOR BMW AND LESION AGAIN DILATED USING NC BALLOONS.LESION STENTED USING 2 STENTS. CHECK ANGIOGRAM AND STENT BOOST IMAGES SHOWED POOR STENT EXPANSION AT OVERLAP SEGMENT. OVERLAP SEGMENT AGAIN DILATED WITH NC BALLOON, STILL UNDER EXPANSION PERSISTED. OPN NC 2.5X15 USED AT 40 ATM FOR EXPANDING THE POOR EXPANDED SEGMENTS. FINALLY IVL 3.0X15 USED AND ALL 80 SHOVKS DELIVERED. FINAL STENT OPTIMISATION DONE USING 3.0X15 NC BALLOON.

Case Summary

IN THE TIMES OF BETTER HARDWARE, ROTA BLATION, IVL AND OPN NC, SYNERGY OF VARIOUS DEVICES CAN HELP US TACKLE MOST OF THE DIFFICULT CALCIFIED LESIONS. ALL THESE DEVICES HAVE A SYNERGISTIC ROLE TO PLAY IN STATE OF THE ART PCI.
