An orsiro drug-eluting stent system was selected for treatment of a mildly calcified lesion (90 percent stenosis degree) in a mildly tortuous distal lad.
After predilatation the device was advanced to the lesion.
When the balloon was inflated with nominal pressure, the pressure did not rise and blood was also observed, so it was judged that the balloon was ruptured and the catheter was removed.
During withdrawal the stent has dislodged and remained in the coronary artery as confirmed by angiography.
Recovery by snare was considered, but since the stent had moved slightly to distal, it was adapted to the vessel wall.
A guideplus extension catheter was used during procedure.
