Rotablation for Stent Underexpansion: An Effective Alternative

A 75-year old female was evaluated for recurrent angina. She had an underexpanded stent. Conventional methods failed to achieve a full stent expansion. Rotablation resulted in an excellent angiographic outcome and full stent deployment. The patient remains angina-free at 1-year follow-up.
