It was reported that the procedure was to treat a moderately tortuous, heavily calcified left main coronary artery.
Pre-dilation was performed with an nc trek balloon and a 3.
0x12mm xience alpine was attempted to be advanced.
It was noted the stent dislodged and snaring of the device was attempted; however, the stent separated.
Only the proximal part of the stent was removed and the other part of the stent was stuck inside the calcified lesions.
Another xience stent was used to successfully complete the procedure.
There was no clinically significant delay reported.
No additional information was provided.
