Coronary calcified lesions will have an increasing impact in the daily practice of coronary angioplasty, considering the epidemiological explosion of factors favoring coronary calcifications, first of all diabetes. Moreover, calcified lesions are underestimated in angiography and associated with an increase in angiographic complications, as well as with a worse clinical prognosis. The usual techniques for the preparation of calcified plaque, in particular rotary atherectomy, have a low penetration rate in France (3% of procedures) and are associated with an increase in per-procedural complications without clinical evidence of effectiveness4. A new device has been developed by Schockwave Medical Inc. for the treatment of calcified lesions to facilitate stent delivery: the C2 Shockwave Medical® Coronary Lithotripsy System (IVL), Inc. This system uses the principle of lithotripsy to induce microfractures in the calcified plaque prior to low-pressure balloon dilatation. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the C2 Shockwave Medical® (IVL), Inc. coronary lithotripsy system in coronary angioplasty in the general population in France.

RECRUITINGTo evaluate the safety and performance of the Shockwave Medical® C2 Coronary Lithotripsy System (IVL), Inc. in coronary angioplasty in "all patients" in France.
Target Vessel Failure (TVF) composite endpoint at 1 year: * Cardiac death * Myocardial infarction according to ARC II definition of myocardial infarction (unless the infarction is clearly attributable to a non-target vessel) * Target vessel revascularization (TVR)
Time frame: 1 year after procedure
To evaluate the device success
Ability to deliver the Shockwave Medical Coronary C2 Lithotripsy System to the lesion site to be treated and achieve a residual lesion \< 50% after application of acoustic therapy.
Time frame: During initial hospitalization, within 2-4 days after procedure
To evaluate the procedural success in de novo lesions
Procedural success is defined as stent placement with \< 20% residual stenosis and no serious angiographic complications (i.e., acute dissection (types D through F), perforation, acute obstruction, persistent slow flow or "no reflow").
Time frame: During initial hospitalization, within 2-4 days after procedure
To evaluate the procedural success in stent malexpansion
Post-IVL procedural success is defined by a) malexpansion \< 20% (QCA and/or Stent magnification) and/or b) endocoronary OCT/IVUS imaging with a MSA (Minimal Stent Area) \>4.5 mm2
Time frame: During initial hospitalization, within 2-4 days after procedure
To evaluate the rate of MACE during the year of follow-up
Evaluate the rate of events considered as Major adverse cardiac events (MACE classification) : all-cause death, myocardial infarction (including non-target vessel MI), any coronary revascularization.
Time frame: 1 year after procedure
To evaluate the rate of stent thrombosis during the year of follow-up
Rate of Stent thrombosis
Time frame: 1 year after procedure
To evaluate the rate of target lesion failure during the year of follow-up
Evaluate the rate of Target lesion failure (Device-oriented endpoint) = addition of rates of events like cardiac death, myocardial infarction (unless clearly attributable to a vessel other than the target vessel) and target lesion revascularization (TLR)
Time frame: 1 year after procedure
To evaluate the rate of per-procedural coronary complications
Rate of Coronary complication as Dissection (A-F), Slow Flow, No reFlow and abrupt vessel occlusion, Perforation
Time frame: During initial hospitalization, within 2-4 days after procedure
