It was reported that catheter entrapment occurred.The target lesion was located in the left tibioperoneal trunk (tpt).A 3.0mm x 80mm x 150cm coyote balloon catheter was advanced for dilation.However, when the balloon catheter was advanced down the 014 thruway 300cm/short taper/straight wire, it was noted that as the balloon got closer to the tip of the wire, the wire became stuck in the wire lumen of the balloon.The wire was attempted to be removed but failed; then both the wire and balloon were removed together and the procedure was completed with a different device.There were no patient complications nor injuries reported.
