As reported, during an endovenous therapy procedure involving a patient with peripheral artery disease, an advance 14 lp low profile balloon catheter ruptured.Access was gained in the left brachial artery to treat a lesion from the left popliteal to the posterior tibial artery.Another manufacturer's 0.014 inch wire guide passed through the lesion and the complaint device was advanced over the wire.Reportedly, as the user began to inflate the balloon, it ruptured at the rated burst pressure.Another device of the same type was used to complete the procedure.The degree of calcification and tortuosity were unknown, as the patient's kidney function was "not good" to use contrast media.There has been no report that any part of the device remained in the patient's body, that the patient required any additional procedures, or that the patient experienced any adverse effects due to this event.
