It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion in the proximal right coronary artery with no tortuosity and no calcification.A 4.0 x 20 mm nc trek balloon catheter was advanced to the target lesion.The balloon catheter became stuck with the guiding catheter during removal, and therefore both devices were removed as a single unit.Reportedly, the tip of the guiding catheter had a deformed tip and became caught on the balloon during removal.The procedure was successfully completed using an unspecified balance middle weight guide wire and a 4.0 x 15 mm nc trek balloon catheter.No additional information was provided.
