Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: (1) Angiographic or IVUS findings showed heavily calcified lesions requiring rotational atherectomy between Jan 2011 and February 2014 (2) Second-generation drug-eluting stent was implanted (3) PCI was performed with IVUS guidance

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint was the cumulative 5-year incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiac death,clinically driven target lesion revascularization, stent thrombosis. We sought to compare 5-year MACE between calcified nodule (CN) and non-CN groups. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| (1) The prevalence of calcified nodule in lesions with heavily calcified lesions requiring rotational atherectomy. (2) Assessment of IVUS findings when in-stent restenosis occurred after stent implantation in lesions with calcified nodule. | — |
