Abstract

Rotational atherectomy is a valuable technique complementary to PCI in complex calcified coronary artery stenoses. A case of a 65 year-old man with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) treated with PCI with rotational atherectomy followed by two drug eluting stents (DES) implantation is presented.
