The angiosculpt device was used to treat a severely calcified peroneal artery.When the device was advanced over the.014 wire and through the 6f sheath, the proximal hypotube broke about 10-12 cm from the proximal hub.The location of the break occurred outside of the body, before entry into the sheath.The proximal and distal piece of the device were both retracted back over the wire and a replacement device was used successfully without incident.
