The orbital atherectomy device (oad) became stuck on the viperwire during use in the anterior tibial artery via femoral access.The oad was advanced again, and glideassist was activated in an attempt to free the oad from the wire.This was not effective, and the oad and wire were removed from the patient together after a delay of 30 minutes or more due to the time it took to rewire the vessel.There were no complications to the patient.The procedure was successfully completed with angioplasty.
