Effect of Crack Patterns in Calcified Plaque on Lumen Area after Stenting for a Severe Calcified Coronary Artery (from the Optical Frequency Domain Imaging-Guided Percutaneous Coronary Artery Intervention for Calcified Lesion Registry)

Background. Severely calcified coronary artery stenting remains a challenge due to stent thrombosis, target vessel failure, and higher mortality. Moreover, optimal vessel preparation for calcified plaque with a crack formation pattern has not been established yet. We aimed to identify the effect of...
