Purpose of Review: To provide a review of recent literature on the treatment of moderate-to-severe calcification in coronary and peripheral vasculature with intravascular lithotripsy (Shockwave Medical, Santa Clara, CA). Recent Findings: Moderate-to-severe calcific plaques constitute a significant proportion of lesions treated with transcatheter interventions in the coronary and peripheral vascular beds and portend lower procedural success rates, increased periprocedural major adverse events, and unfavorable long-term clinical outcomes compared to non-calcific plaques. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a new technique that uses acoustic shock waves in a balloon-based system to induce fracture in the calcium deposits to facilitate luminal gain and stent expansion. Summary: IVL demonstrated high procedural success and low complication rates in the management of moderate-to-severe calcification in coronary and peripheral vascular beds and led to large luminal gain by modification of calcific plaque as assessed by optical coherence tomography. Further studies will determine the role of IVL in an integrated, protocolized approach to the treatment of severely calcified plaques in the coronary and peripheral vascular beds.
