Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn. 1991 Dec;24(4):295-9. doi: 10.1002/ccd.1810240417.

Abstract

Rotational ablation was performed successfully in three chronic coronary occlusions. At 3 months follow-up, two of the three lesions were patent. These cases illustrate the overall advantages and unique technical aspects of this device.
