    One hundred sixty patients who underwent a percutaneous intervention for treatment of in-stent restenosis were evaluated on clinical follow-up to determine the predictors of reintervention, and also to compare rotational atherectomy with repeat percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) for this condition. Current smoking and saphenous vein graft location were the independent predictors of target vessel revascularization (TVR), and there was no difference in the rate of TVR between rotational atherectomy and re-PTCA.
