Background: We present the results of a patient-level meta-analysis of the two currently completed and core-lab adjudicated prospective trials of Jetstream atherectomy system (Boston Scientific) in femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (FP-ISR) and compare the findings to a published, prespecified 6-month performance goal of target-lesion revascularization (TLR) with angioplasty alone.

Methods: The JETSTREAM-ISR (n = 29 patients; n = 32 lesions) was a two-center feasibility study that evaluated Jetstream atherectomy in FP-ISR. The JET-ISR (n = 60 patients; n = 60 lesions) was a 10-center investigational device exemption study that evaluated the same. Both trials were investigator-initiated, prospective, single-arm designs, with core lab assessments of stent-device interaction and with nearly identical inclusion/exclusion criteria and data definitions. The primary endpoint was TLR, which was analyzed using proportional and Kaplan-Meier analyses.

Results: A total of 92 lesions were treated in 89 patients. Kaplan-Meier freedom from TLR at 6 months was 78.5% (95% confidence interval, 69.9-87.1). Proportional TLR was 21.2% (18/85 limbs). The performance goal of TLR (bailout stent included as TLR) was set at 37.9% at 6 months with balloon angioplasty alone. TLR rate derived from the meta-analysis was significantly lower than the TLR rate set for the historic control accounting for the 95% confidence interval lower bound (P<.01). There was no device-stent interaction and no amputation. Distal embolization occurred in 11/92 (12.0%) (filters used in 76.1% of all cases) and bailout stenting was performed in 8.7%.

Conclusion: In this meta-analysis, Jetstream atherectomy in treating FP-ISR had a high freedom from TLR despite no adjunctive drug-coated balloon use. Randomized trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Article Synopsis
  • An 83-year-old woman with leg pain underwent endovascular therapy (EVT) for severe stenosis in the right superficial femoral artery (SFA) using the Jetstream™ atherectomy system and a paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB).
  • Although the initial procedure showed lumen improvement, her symptoms returned 9 months later due to the development of a pseudoaneurysm and severe stenosis.
  • This case highlights the risk of pseudoaneurysm as a complication of EVT with the Jetstream™ system, despite its benefits in treating calcified arterial lesions.

Management of Pseudoaneurysm as a Delayed Complication after Using Rotational Atherectomy in Popliteal Artery Atherosclerosis: A Case Report.

Although intravascular atherectomy is widely used for debulking calcified atheromas in peripheral arterial disease, it is associated with complications. Delayed rupture with pseudoaneurysm formation is rare. We report the case of a 73-year-old man who developed a 24 mm×20 mm×27 mm popliteal artery (PA) pseudoaneurysm after rotational atherectomy.

Endovascular treatment of lower-extremity peripheral disease (PAD) is associated with higher complication rates and suboptimal outcomes in women. Atherectomy has shown favourable outcomes in calcified lesions, minimising the incidence of stent placement caused by recoil or flow-limiting dissection. To date, there are no published mid-term outcomes evaluating the performance of atherectomy differentiated by sex.

Objective: We evaluated the midterm results of atherectomy-assisted angioplasty for the treatment of femoropopliteal lesions and the identification of possible subgroups of patients with superior outcomes.

Methods: We conducted a single-center, physician-initiated, nonindustry-sponsored retrospective analysis of patients with Rutherford category ranging from II to V and de novo occlusive or stenotic lesions of the superficial femoral (SFA) and/or popliteal arteries treated with atherectomy-assisted angioplasty (Jetstream rotational atherectomy + drug-eluting ballooning). In cases of subintimal recanalization or patients without an SFA stamp, with previous ipsilateral bypass surgery, systemic coagulopathy, end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis, life expectancy of <12 months, and intolerance to aspirin, clopidogrel, and/or heparin were excluded.
