We aimed to illustrate one of the mechanisms of rotational atherectomy burr entrapment in a coronary stent where the burr was rolled up in the stent’s struts. Physicians performing rotational atherectomy should be aware of this complication...

We present the case of a 73-year-old male who presented with exertional angina; imaging demonstrated severe coronary artery disease and a large coronary artery fistula. Ligation of the fistula resulted in severe right ventricular failure and...

PCI for occlusive in-stent restenosis is challenging principally due to the highly resistant nature of the material that comprises the proximal cap. We present a case where conventional techniques failed, and its successful resolution with...
