“…This is similar to previous reports of event rates ranging from 14% to 46% after balloon angioplasty, with lesion length being the constant predictive factor of long term outcome [5,7,13] . In studies using rotational atherectomy and balloon angioplasty, clinical event rates between 19% and 35% have been reported, with this rate also depending on the lesion length [7,8,18] . In our study, however, only 13% of patients treated by rotational atherectomy and balloon angioplasty had a clinical event, although admittedly, the average lesion length in our population was relatively short, at only 12·7 7·4 mm.…”
