Issue Date: | 28-Jan-2026 | Source: | Online ahead of print | Journal title: | Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions | Department: | Cardiology | Abstract: | We describe the "skipping rope technique" for managing burr entrapment during rotational atherectomy. Sequential counterclockwise rotational force is applied to the drive shaft, generating alternative torque dynamics. This maneuver provides a safe method to disengage a stuck rotaburr, offering operators an additional strategy for this challenging complication. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/1/3041 | DOI: | 10.1002/ccd.70476 | Pubmed: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41601440 | Publicaton type: | Journal Article | Keywords: | Cardiology Heart Disease |
