Notes:
Conventional coronary balloon angioplasty is complicated by abrupt arterial occlusion in 4%-8% of cases and remains the most important and feared acute problem with this procedure. This review discusses the significance and various treatment options for abrupt occlusion, focusing particularly on the potential use of directional coronary atherectomy to treat significant coronary arterial dissections complicating conventional angioplasty. The use of adjunctive atherectomy for the treatment of suboptimal coronary angioplasty results without dissection is also discussed. (J Interven Cardiol 1996;9:129–134)
