Double “full moon” CTO plaque detected by computed tomography could predict high‐grade debulking techniques: A case‐report

Circular heavily calcified “Full Moon” plaques relevance for CTO‐PCI remains unclear. This case shows a patient with double “Full Moon” plaques‐CTO. Cardiac tomography identified these lesions and allowed to provide adequate debulking equipment. “Full Moon” plaques could predict CTO‐PCI complexity....

Descripción
Sumario:Circular heavily calcified “Full Moon” plaques relevance for CTO‐PCI remains unclear. This case shows a patient with double “Full Moon” plaques‐CTO. Cardiac tomography identified these lesions and allowed to provide adequate debulking equipment. “Full Moon” plaques could predict CTO‐PCI complexity. CT can identify these lesions and help planning CTO‐PCI for increasing success rates.
