The angiosculpt device was used to treat an at peripheral lesion to improve blood flow to the left foot.During inflation, the balloon ruptured at an unknown pressure.Upon removal, it was noted that the balloon detached from the shaft, but remained intact to the device.No patient injury reported.This product problem is being submitted because it is unknown if the balloon ruptured above the rated burst pressure (rbp).There is potential for harm if it were to recur.
