Overview
A cutting balloon is an angioplasty device invented by Barath et al used in percutaneous coronary interventions. It has a special balloon tip with small blades, that are activated when the balloon is inflated. This procedure is different to Rotoblation (Percutaneous Transluminal Rotational Atherectomy or PCRA) whereby a diamond tipped device spins at high revolutions to cut away calcific (chalky) atheroma usually prior to coronary stenting.
ACCF/AHA/SCAI 2011 Guidelines for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Cutting Balloon Angioplasty[1] (DO NOT EDIT)
Class III (No Benefit) |
"1. Cutting balloon angioplasty should not be performed routinely during PCI. [2][3][4](Level of Evidence: A)" |
Class IIb |
"1. Cutting balloon angioplasty might be considered to avoid slippage induced coronary artery trauma during PCI for in-stent restenosis or ostial lesions in side branches. [3](Level of Evidence: C)" |
