Rotational atherectomy with adjunctive balloon angioplasty in calcified chronic total occlusions of superficial femoral artery.

Rotational atherectomy with adjunctive balloon angioplasty has satisfactory technical success rates and mid-term outcomes. As an adjunctive method, there was no difference between drug-coated balloon angioplasty s and POBAs. Smoking cessation is always the first-step treatment to improve mid-term patency results. Patients with critical limb ischemia have worse patency results compared to the patients with claudication.
