The diamondback gen2 coronary orbital atherectomy device (oad) was selected for treatment of a type c, severely calcified, 70-80% stenosed lesion in the proximal and mid right coronary artery (rca).The vessel was 4.0mm in diameter and not tortuous.The lesion was wired via a radial approach.Intravascular ultrasound (ivus) was attempted, however, the ivus catheter was unable to advance in the vessel.A wire exchange was performed.The oad was inserted, and the crown jumped in a proximal to distal direction during the first treatment on low speed.Imaging showed the vessel was intact.On the third treatment, the crown jumped as the oad was moving in a distal to proximal direction.Imaging showed the vessel was intact.After the fifth treatment on low speed, the patient experienced chest pain, and morphine was administered.A perforation and a dissection were observed on imaging.Cardiac tamponade was performed, and the patient experienced hemodynamic deterioration due to the tamponade.The patient was intubated, and resuscitation was performed.Pericardiocentesis, intra-aortic balloon pump insertion, stent placement, and a blood transfusion were also performed.The patient passed away on (b)(6) 2021.The cause of death was reported to be perforation, cardiac tamponade, and cardiogenic shock.
