It was reported that a burr stuck on guidewire issue occurred.A 1.50mm rotapro was selected for treatment of the target lesion that was located in the right coronary artery (rca) and was moderately calcified and mildly tortuous.During the procedure, while adjusting the rotation speed, it was noted that the drill head broke off outside of the patient.A new 1.50mm rotapro was selected for treatment to continue the procedure.After several runs, it was noted that the burr could no longer move over the wire.It was attempted to move the knob several times; however, the issue did not resolve.The rotapro and wire were completely removed together, and the procedure was completed as planned with no patient complications.
