Impella-Supported Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided Aggressive Rotational Atherectomy for Heavily Calcified Lesions in Left Main Trunk Bifurcation in a Patient with Severe Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

Impella-Supported Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided Aggressive Rotational Atherectomy for Heavily Calcified Lesions in Left Main Trunk Bifurcation in a Patient with Severe Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

The Impella, a percutaneous left ventricular assist device, has been reported to minimize the risk of hemodynamic compromise and improve clinical outcomes during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in complex high-risk indicated patients (CHIPs). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides info...
