It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion in the heavily calcified, mildly tortuous iliac artery. A 8x40mm armada 35 percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) balloon ruptured. The pta was difficult to remove through an unspecified 6f sheath, so they were removed together.
