Successful coronary stent implantation using directional coronary atherectomy without side branch occlusion
Abstract
Abstract Percutaneous coronary intervention with a drug‐eluting stent was successfully performed without a side branch (SB) occlusion. In this case, a directional coronary atherectomy catheter played an important role in modifying the plaque at the proximal left anterior descending artery and in crossing a wire to the jeopardized SB.
