Event or Problem Description
During a procedure an attempt was made to use one nc euphora rx ptca balloon catheter to treat a right common femoral artery with 75¿99% stenosis and some calcification.A left common femoral approach was used, and the left common femoral artery was cannulated under ultrasound guidance.There was some calcification.It was decided to try and open up the anterior tibialis lesion.A 0.014 wire that was in the profundal was directed down the superior femoral artery (sfa) into the popliteal across the tibioperoneal trunk and into the anterior tibial without difficulty.A non-medtronic pta balloon (3.5 x 40mm) was attempted to be used, however the non-medtronic balloon failed to cross the lesion.A 2mm over the wire balloon was then attempted to be used and successfully dilated the ¿lid side,¿ but there was residual narrowing as it is a very hard calcified lesion.Further preparation with a monorail balloon catheter was attempted, however this would not advance across the lesion.As it was pulled back it seemed to fracture.The fractured balloon was in the 45 cm sheath.A 0.035 wire was advanced a 2mm balloon into the area of the site, however when slowly pulling back on the sheath the balloon remained in place against the 0.014 wire and was successfully able to pull the entire system out with the fractured balloon.It was stated that the patients lesion was very hard and mostly likely fractured the balloon.There was no harm to the patient.A new 7 french sheath was used and at that point it was decided to stop the procedure.
