During a procedure, a diamondback coronary orbital atherectomy device (oad) and viperwire guide wire were used to treat a target lesion in the mid left anterior descending artery (lad).The target lesion was a type b, 75% stenosed lesion.The target lesion was treated with five treatment passes at 80krpm.It was initially reported that a dissection was enlarged at the proximal site of the lesion and became a coronary pseudoaneurysm.It was noted that the event was thought to be related to a strong wire bias with the viperwire guide wire.A perfusion balloon was used to minimize the pseudoaneurysm and a covered stent was implanted.After the procedure, the pseudoaneurysm was noted on a pre-ivus image, however, the pseudoaneurysm had been enlarged after atherectomy.The patient condition following the procedure was good.
