Event Description

A case study was submitted for review titled ¿successful shockwave intravascular lithotripsy of an under-expanded stent after a month from primary implantation¿.During the index procedure, coronary angiography revealed critical stenosis in the right coronary artery (rca) and an additional lesion in the left circumflex artery (lcx).Percutaneous coronary intervention (pci) to the rca was successfully performed with 3.0x30 mm drug-eluting stent (des) implantation.Due to ongoing ischemia, the lcx was pre-dilated with a 2.0x15 mm non-compliant (nc) balloon at 12 atm and was followed by implantation of a 3.5x30 mm resolute onyx des at 16 atm.Due to significant stent under-expansion, optimization with a 3.5x15 mm nc balloon at 22 atm was performed however it was unsuccessful with significant ¿dog bone effect¿ observed.Additional post-dilatation was performed with an ultra-high-pressure 3.5x10 mm non-medtronic (mdt) nc balloon at 35 atm.Despite aggressive post-dilatation, full stent expansion was not obtained.The patient was discharged with symptoms of angina, class ii.One month later, the presented with exacerbation of angina symptoms (ccs class iii).Coronary angiography and fluoroscopic digital stent enhancement (dse) revealed incomplete stent expansion in lcx with a residual stenosis of 80%.Additional evaluation in optical coherence tomography (oct) revealed massive calcifications with co-existing impaired endothelialization on the under-expanded struts.Initially, post-dilatation was performed with a 3.5x15 mm nc balloon at 20 atm but this was unsuccessful.A non-mdt 3.5x12 mm intravascular lithotripsy (s-ivl) balloon was then used and after 40 ultrasonic pulses, full scaffold expansion was achieved.The stent was optimized with a 3.75x15 mm nc balloon at 16 atm.Coronary angiography, fluoroscopic digital stent enhancement and optical coherence tomography confirmed adequate stent expansion without any residual stenosis.The patient was discharged two days after the procedure without any in-hospital complications.
