Efficacy and Safety of Intravascular Lithotripsy Versus Rotational Atherectomy in Balloon-Crossable Heavily Calcified Coronary Lesions
Cardiovascular revascularization medicine(2023)
摘要
Background: Severe coronary artery calcification is associated with poor procedural and clinical outcomes in pa-tients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Rotational atherectomy (RA) and intravascular litho-tripsy (IVL) are techniques used to optimize lesion preparation and facilitate stent implantation in this anatomical scenario. However, their comparative efficacy and safety remain unknown. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 101 patients who underwent PCI utilizing RA or IVL for lesion preparation in heavily calcified balloon-crossable coronary stenosis. The primary endpoint was procedural success. In addi-tion, the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE, defined as the composite of all-cause mortal-ity, target lesion revascularization(TLR), stroke and stent thrombosis (ST)) at 6-months was analyzed. Results: High rates of procedural success were achieved in both RA and IVL (82 % vs. 92 %; p = 0.25), with a low in hospital complication rate (8 % vs. 4 %; p = 0.678). No significant differences were found in overall MACE at 6-months (12 % vs 6 %; P = 0.487), death (8 % vs. 2 %; p = 0.362), TLR (2 % vs. 2 %; p = 1.000), stroke (2 % vs. 2 %; P = 1.000) or ST (2 % vs. 0 %; P = 1.000). Moreover, IVL is associated with a significantly shorter fluoroscopy time (32 [22-45] vs 26 [16-37]; P = 0.041). Conclusions: Both IVL and RA are safe and effective methods for treatment of heavily calcified coronary lesions with similar outcomes at short term follow up.(c) 2022 The Authors.
