During treatment of a highly calcified, tight, stenosed lesion in the distal posterior tibial artery (pt) via contralateral right common femoral approach, the diamondback 360 peripheral orbital atherectomy device (oad) was briefly stuck in the pt.Nitroglycerine was administered and balloon angioplasty with non-csi 1.5mm balloon was performed to remove the oad.Post dilation with non-csi 2.0mm balloon followed to complete the procedure.In the opinion of the physician, the oad got stuck due to small arteries.The patient was stable.
