- Complex Coronary Angioplasties
Complex coronary angioplasties are advanced, life-saving procedures used to treat severe or complicated blockages in the coronary arteries. These include cases involving left main artery disease, bifurcation lesions, calcified arteries, and previously failed angioplasties.
With over 13 years of experience and superspeciality training from AIIMS, New Delhi, Dr. Basavaraj Utagi specializes in performing these intricate interventions using cutting-edge techniques such as bifurcation stenting, rota-ablation, and intravascular imaging guidance.
When is Complex Angioplasty Needed?
Blockages in critical areas like the left main coronary artery
Severely calcified arteries that resist standard ballooning
Narrowings at arterial branch points (bifurcations)
Chronic total occlusions (CTOs)
Previously stented arteries with restenosis
Techniques Used:
Rota-ablation (Rotablation): A diamond-tipped burr rotates at high speed to break down hard calcified plaques
Bifurcation stenting: Dual stenting methods to ensure blood flow in both main and side branches
OCT/IVUS Guidance: Intravascular imaging to precisely visualize and treat complex lesions
High-pressure and drug-eluting balloons/stents for optimal long-term outcomes
Why Choose Dr. Basavaraj Utagi?
Expertise in handling high-risk and complex cases
AIIMS-trained with deep knowledge in advanced coronary techniques
Patient-focused decision-making and safety-first approach
Proven track record in improving long-term survival and heart function
Follow-Up & Recovery:
After the procedure, patients are closely monitored, with a personalized care plan that includes medications, lifestyle guidance, and regular follow-ups to ensure lasting benefits.
If you’ve been advised against surgery or previously told your blockages are inoperable, a consultation with Dr. Basavaraj Utagi may open new avenues for safe and effective treatment.
