We describe a case of an 84-year old gentleman undergoing PCI of a heavily calcified and stenotic right coronary artery. Rotational atherectomy was employed, but due to difficulties in wiring and burr advancement, extra deep guide-catheter intubation was used to provide support and facilitate advancement of the burr and subsequent stent deployment. An approach with careful extra deep guide-catheter intubation in rotablation is an option that might be considered for selected cases with severely stenotic, calcified, angulated lesions.
我们描述了一例84岁男性患者,其右冠状动脉严重钙化并狭窄,正在接受经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)。采用了旋磨术,但由于导丝操作困难和磨头推进受阻,遂使用超深导管插管以提供支撑,促进磨头推进及随后的支架置入。对于伴有严重狭窄、钙化、成角病变的特定病例,在旋磨术中谨慎采用超深导管插管的方法是一种可考虑的选择。
