Abstract
While attempting to dilate a distal lesion in a right coronary artery, using a balloonon-a-wire catheter, circumferential balloon rupture occurred with temporary entrapment of the balloon in the stenosis. The balloon was retrieved, and the dilatation completed, using an over-the-wireballoon catheter.Keywords
