AI Article Synopsis
- Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a serious condition related to systemic atherosclerosis, leading to high rates of illness and death.
- Angioplasty and stenting treatments face difficulties due to the physical forces involved.
- Atherectomy devices have become an important option for treating PAD, and this article reviews the latest research on these devices.
Article Abstract
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a clinical manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The physiological force and shear stress from angioplasty and stenting have made PAD treatment challenging. Atherectomy devices have continued to emerge as a major therapy in the management of peripheral vascular disease. This article presents a review of the current literature for the atherectomy devices used in PAD.

Study on the use of intravascular ultrasound-guided coronary intravascular lithotripsy compared with rotational atherectomy: a single-center, retrospective study.
J Int Med Res
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, Yinchuan, People's Republic of China.
Objective: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided coronary intravascular lithotripsy and rotational atherectomy in treating severe coronary artery calcification.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 60 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention at the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from October 2022 to August 2023 was conducted. The patients were divided into two groups: 30 received IVUS-guided coronary intravascular lithotripsy and 30 underwent IVUS-guided rotational atherectomy.

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the safety and mid-term outcomes of a hybrid treatment method combining rotational atherectomy (RA) with drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty in patients with femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis (ISR).
Methods: This single-center retrospective study enrolled patients from January 2018 to March 2022 who had femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis treated by RA and DCB. Preoperative demographics, operative details, and postoperative 12-month follow-up outcomes were analyzed statistically.
A Laser Atherectomy-Thrombectomy System for Primary Management of Acute Limb Ischemia.
J Vasc Interv Radiol

Department of Interventional Radiology, Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, 510 S Kingshighway Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63110.
Purpose: To evaluate the primary use of a laser atherectomy-thrombectomy system in patients with acute limb ischemia (ALI).
Materials And Methods: A single-center retrospective review of patients presenting with ALI (14 days or less) from August 2021 to February 2024 treated primarily with a laser atherectomy-thrombectomy system (Auryon; Angiodynamics, Queensbury, New York) was performed. Technical success was defined by resolution of the acute occlusion with adequate inflow and outflow with pedal signals detectable by handheld doppler ultrasound.

Department of Cardiology, Hiratsuka Kyosai Hospital, Hiratsuka, Japan.
Objectives: Endovascular therapy (EVT) for calcified nodules in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains challenging in achieving favorable outcomes. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of orbital atherectomy (OA) for calcified nodules using an IM catheter to precisely control the device and achieve optimal engagement with the target lesion.
Methods: We performed EVT for a calcified nodule in the right common femoral artery using an OA.
