The orsiro drug-eluting stent system was chosen for the treatment of a severely calcified lesion in the lcx.After pre-dilatation it was attempted to inflate the delivery balloon of the orsiro stent system but the balloon could not be inflated completely at 8 atm.The pressure was increased up to 16 atm and the deployment was successful.Due to the inflation issues a balloon pinhole was suspected.
