Video 10: If at First You Don’t Succeed, Try, Try Again: A Stepwise Approach to the Non-Dilatable Lesion

Video 10. Improved flow after lasing run and NC balloon inflation. After two passes with the laser catheter, an NC Quantum Apex 2.0mm x 12mm non-compliant balloon was then able to successfully dilate the lesion, with the residual waist yielding at less than 12 atmospheres of pressure (Figures 8 and 9, Videos 9 and 10). Following this, the lesion was treated with tandem Promus Premier (Boston Scientific) drug-eluting stents (2.25mm x 24mm and 2.25mm x 8mm).
