It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a moderately calcified, moderately tortuous superficial femoral artery that was 80% stenosed.
The 4.
0x80mm armada 35 balloon dilatation catheter was pressurized to nominal pressure.
The balloon only partially inflated and a leak was noted from the hub.
A new 4.
0x60mm armada 35 was used to successfully complete the procedure.
There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.
No additional information was provided.
