“…IVL is a novel technique which circumferentially modifies calcified lesions by disruption (microfracture) of superficial and deep calcium 4 to allow for effective delivery and placement of intravascular stents. This technique has been successfully used in coronary, abdominal and peripheral artery interventions.…”

“…This creates rapidly expanding and subsequently collapsing bubbles in a closed system which generate pulsatile sonic pressure waves that deliver mechanical energy to the surrounding tissue. 4 The energy is most efficiently transferred the closer the balloon is to the vessel wall. The 4 cm balloon catheter is available in diameters between 2.5 mm to 4 mm and the 6 cm catheter between 3.5 mm to 7 mm.…”

“…We recently demonstrated IVL-facilitated endovascular interventions of the aortic arch; 2 of the patients in our study underwent carotid interventions. 2,3 One patient developed acute transient unilateral vision loss following IVL treatment in the internal carotid artery, despite the use of the distal EPD, Emboshield (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA, USA). This was felt to be secondary to IVL balloon withdrawal and release and subsequent downstream embolization of embolic debris to the ophthalmic artery.…”

“…We thank Butt et al for their interest 1 in our recently published article on Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for the treatment of severe vascular calcification. 2 Heavily calcified coronary and peripheral artery lesions hamper percutaneous revascularization and impact interventional outcomes by impairing device crossing, impairing stent apposition and expansion, and disrupting drug and polymer release kinetics.…”
