What to do if you can’t stent a calcified heart vessel

Cardiac vascular calcification is severe enough to prevent stenting and is accompanied by symptoms of myocardial ischemia, and is intended to be treated further by balloon treatment or cardiac bypass surgery.
If cardiac vascular calcification is too severe to be stented, balloon treatment should be considered first, which may include repeated balloon dilatation, high-pressure balloon dilatation, or cutting balloon, spinning and grinding, or laser treatment. If stenting is not feasible, further management may include bypass surgery, which provides a direct blood supply to the heart through the bridging vessel.
Bypass surgery belongs to a relatively large heart surgery, there is a certain probability of failure, you need to go to an authoritative cardiac surgery hospital for treatment, and try to regulate the physical condition to stabilize before treatment.
Cardiac vascular calcification is obvious, obvious symptoms of myocardial ischemia, need to consult a doctor in time, under the guidance of the clinician standardized treatment.
