ABSTRACT
Background: Rotational atherectomy is a technique used in complex highly calcified
lesions and under-expanded stents.
Objective: To communicate the initial experience of rotational atherectomy by
transradial access, rotastent and by distal transradial access.
Materials and Methods: Prospective and descriptive analysis done from November
2017 to March 2018. Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
(PCI) were included, with single or multiple lesions with severe calcification, with other
unsuccessful modification strategies, where rotational atherectomy was performed.
Clinical follow-up was done 1, 6 and 12 months after procedure.
Results: Twenty-two patients were included with mean age of 66.5 years, 86.4% men;
68.2% of the patients presented with chronic stable angina; 50% of the cases were
done by transradial access and one by distal radial; the treated vessels were: anterior
descendant (40.9%), right coronary (45.4%) and circumflex (18.2%). In three cases
rotational ablation of under-expanded stents was performed. Complications: one patient
died due to a non-cardiac cause, a significant femoral hematoma, two cases of re-PCI
due to restenosis, one patient required urgent surgical revascularization.
Conclusions: Rotational atherectomy by femoral access, proximal transradial and
distal transradial in highly calcified lesions and underexpant stents has shown safety
and encouraging results in the short and medium term.
