Abstract
Calcified coronary plaque represents a challenging scenario for interventional cardiology. It is often associated with stent under-expansion during percutaneous coronary intervention. We report two cases of unexpected coronary stent under-expansion due to heavily calcified plaque, successfully treated with shockwave coronary lithoplasty.
