We analyzed the effect of differing burr and balloon sizes during mechanical rotational atherectomy on the need for target vessel revascularization at 6 months. The ideal burr/artery ratio and adjunctive balloon/artery ratio for optimizing acute luminal results and minimizing restenosis is unknown. Six-month clinical follow-up was obtained in 311 patients (339 lesions) treated with rotational atherectomy from August 1993 to September 1994, to determine whether procedural results or technique were related to the need for target vessel revascularization. Target vessel revascularization, defined as repeat percutaneous intervention or bypass surgery within 6 months after rotational atherectomy, occurred in 19% of patients. Larger burr/artery ratios, defined as the final burr size divided by the reference artery size, were correlated with decreased postatherectomy diameter stenosis (p <0.009) and decreased final diameter stenosis (p <0.03). However, there was no statistical association between postatherectomy or final diameter stenosis with need for revascularization (p = not significant [NS]). The need for revascularization was lowest for burr/artery ratio between 0.6 to 0.85 (15%) versus burr/artery <0.6 or >0.85 (25%) (p <0.04). Postatherectomy, smaller balloon/artery ratios, defined as the final balloon size divided by the reference artery size, were correlated with lower repeat revascularization rates. Balloon/artery ratios <0.95 (target vessel revascularization = 11% vs 25% in balloon/artery >0.95) were associated with the best luminal results and the least risk for clinical restenosis (p <0.006). For rotational atherectomy, despite improvement in acute luminal results with increased burr/artery ratio, the use of a moderate burr/artery ratio correlated with the lowest revascularization rates. There was no correlation between postatherectomy or final diameter stenosis and need for repeat interventions. However, the use of large balloon/artery ratios after rotablator was associated with higher target vessel revascularization rates.
