Impact of Orbital Atherectomy on Side Branch Patency in Severely Calcified Coronary Artery Lesions: A Retrospective Single-Center Experience

In patients with severely calcified coronary bifurcation lesions with side branch ≥2.0 mm in diameter, the use of orbital atherectomy (OA) was associated with preservation of side branch TIMI flow grade 3 and a low incidence of complications, Dr. Hassan Saleh and colleagues, University of Louisville School of Medicine, United States, reported in the November 15 issue of The American Journal of Cardiology.

The researchers retrospectively evaluated 272 patients who underwent OA for severely calcified coron...
