A 4.0mm x 150mm x 135cm surveil drug-coated balloon (lot w240003) was used to treat a lesion in the common femoral artery of a 58-year-old female patient with a relevant history of dialysis, hypertension, peripheral artery disease, coronary artery disease, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes.During the procedure, a non-abbott closure device was present proximally in the anatomy.The surveil balloon was advanced to the target lesion and inflated as intended.Upon inflation, a loss of pressure was noted and balloon rupture was suspected.There was resistance encountered with the closure device during removal; the balloon was pulled away from the device but did not detach, and the entire device was removed from the anatomy as a single unit.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant procedural delay.The procedure was completed at that point.No additional clinical consequences were reported.
